MODERN
ARTIFACTS
COLLECTIVE

We walk. We wander. We listen.
Long walks renew our minds, connect us to community, and fuel our imagination.

We prioritize mindfulness, wellness, and our relationship to the natural world.
Our art practice is grounded in presence, intention, and love.

We make things to amplify the voices around us.
We support each other—especially in our lowest moments.
We archive memories, preserve stories, and protect joy.

We stay curious.
We experiment with new tools, mediums, and methods.
We show up for our communities—physically, spiritually, creatively.

We shield each other:
By listening, organizing, respecting, and resisting exploitation.

We trust the process.
We look inward, meditate, and let ideas move through us.

We collaborate to push boundaries.
We face dilemmas with clarity and purpose.
We create work that uplifts—and honors the younger versions of ourselves.

We document our journey—sketch, write, reflect weekly.
We offer public art to the people—as a way to unlock imagination
and fuel collective dreaming for all possible worlds.
