Description: while the global reality seems to be inverting and scrambling more and more every day, I am working hard to ground myself in my beliefs, in humanity, and in transformative justice. Policing does not keep us safe. Violence does not end violence. Attacking and threatening students with militarized police while self proclaimed nazis are allowed to "peacefully demonstrate" on campus grounds... I think back to my experience as a college student, as a graduate student, and how disempowered I felt in moments of social injustice. I'm so proud of and inspired by the work these students and educators are doing right now. . 'The function of freedom is to free someone else" - Toni Morrison
Description: She wrote Frankenstein at 18 during a stormy week in Switzerland. The rest of the genre is still catching up. Mary Shelley (1797–1851) essentially invented science fiction, explored the ethics of creation and responsibility long before anyone thought those were science topics, and did it all while navigating a life that would have broken most people. This minimalist portrait captures the woman behind the monster. For gothic fiction lovers, Frankenstein fans, literary art collectors, and admirers of writers who changed entire genres before turning 20.

Description: This is an original digital painting inspired by the photograph of Ezra Pound by Richard Avedon at William Carlos Williams' house in 1958. Pound was one of the most controversial, influential, and innovative poets of the modernist period. His contribution to poetry began with his promotion of Imagism – a movement that emphasizes on clarity, precision and economy of language. He was awarded the Bollingen Prize in 1949 by the Library of Congress for his unfinished 120-section epic, The Cantos.
Description: Aesop was a Greek fabulist and storyteller credited with a number of fables now collectively known as Aesop's Fables. Scattered details of Aesop's life can be found in ancient sources, including Aristotle, Herodotus, and Plutarch. An ancient literary work called The Aesop Romance tells an episodic, probably highly fictional version of his life, including the traditional description of him as a strikingly ugly slave who by his cleverness acquires freedom and becomes an adviser to kings and city-states. Older spellings of his name have included Esop(e) and Isope. Depictions of Aesop in popular culture have included many works of art and his appearance as a character in numerous books, films, plays, and television programs. (Wikipedia)

Description: John Steinbeck quote: And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world. And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected. And this I must fight against: any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual. This is what I am and what I am about.
