I’m an incomplete quad learning to use my hands again by using Procreate app on iPad. I live in Ecuador in a city in the Andes. Before I got paralyzed I painted in oils on charcoal on watercolor paper. That photo is exactly 50 years old.

Vestiges of Silence
Chromatic Cryptogram No. 04

An intimate landscape of distant resonances. Snippets emerge from silence, never fully reassembling. Vestiges floating in possibility, holding suspended stories waiting to be rediscovered.

Epstein survivor Haley Robson: "To the President of the United States of America, I want to send a clear message to you…I can't help to be skeptical of what [your] agenda is…I am traumatized. I am not stupid. You have put us through so much stress…It's not right."

Apple is anti-union.

Tesla is anti-union.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.
