Artist Statement:
As the United States launches its most recent effort to make war for corporate profit and domination over others, this carousel of images with captions describes how war is based in domination logics and propose connect based ways of living that my collective and I have experimented with and established over the last few years. This is a perfect time to redirect people who are angry about the war to live differently, in such a way that stops future wars and all the small wars we perpetuate daily.
