Author Daisy QuezedaUreña
bosque brotante documents the interactions and objects making up Daisy Quezeda Ureña’s sculptural and participatory art project about the Rio Grande, or bosque, region. As Quezeda Ureña explains, in this artist book, “Land and community learning, relating to native flora and fauna, form the basis of this project. This book records the voices of collaborators from Tewa Women United, Cochiti Pueblo, and San Agustín, Chihuahua, who were brought together to discuss ecological relationships that are interlinked in the Rio Grande ecological zone. The emotional and intellectual bonds that link these people and their regions touch on themes of rootedness, human imposed disparities, historical records and traditions, and present actions towards restoration and awareness.”

Author Contributor-based submissions; introductions by Melina Mehr
invisibilities is a contributor-based zine centred around the experiences of various marginalized groups and the process of decoding our environment through translation, mythology, and memory. This DIY project aims to create community through the visibility of those often omitted and erased from popular and subculture narratives. Issue No. 1 collects the stories and visualizations of womxn living with hidden chronic illnesses, and Issue No. 2 focuses on the family histories of womxn pertaining to diaspora and immigration. Issue No. 3 is currently being developed and intends to consider the intersections of spirituality, anti-oppressive frameworks within the art world, and community care. invisibilities is self-published by Toronto-based writer Melina Mehr; the zines are printed at a local family-run print shop and assembled and packed in Melina’s living room. Submissions are currently volunteer based, and all sales stream directly back into printing and assembling costs. invisibilities serves as a digital and physical platform for individuals to expand creative networks, experiences, and values, and hopes to resonate with folks who are interested in alternative spaces, but fail to see themselves represented.
