Join us for a book making ritual in which we construct book-bodies to accompany us into a post apocalyptic future. Drawing on memory, found objects, ancestral knowledge, plant medicine, secrets, weather systems, and the recursive wisdom of death, we will play with the book form as object and subject, as kin. Whether a survival guide or an intimate memory archive, these books-as-bodies can deepen our understanding of this time of collapse and its potential future by exploring how the book can be a bridge to an alternate body future—expanded, entangled, folded, stitched.
