exhibition + webshop supporting farmers’ resistance to the privatization of India’s agricultural sector.
From seedsewa.com:
“An expression of community beyond borders + solidarity with our farmer kin in india, this fundraiser was put together to support grassroots efforts against perpetuating cycles of profit over people, land + the stories held by both. All proceeds from this fundraiser (minus shipping costs) will be donated to Hemkunt Foundation, in support of their efforts at 5+ protest sites through their Farmer Protest Relief Aid project.
We recognize + resonate with the healing + immense value of leaning into our creative communities as a means of collective care + redistribution of resources.
In the spirit of virtual exhibitions + spaces, we also felt pulled to creating a space that facilitated these efforts + links of kinship + solidarity by centering the voices of beloved artists + friends from the south asian diaspora.
It is vital to channel the love, resources, flexibility + creative spirit to the resistance against further exploitation, Brahminical patriarchal oppression + erasure showering on our farmer Kin ~ the most acutely affected by the violence + exploitation within the agricultural sector being our Dalit farmer kin.
The artists contributing to + breathing life into this fundraiser create within, between + throughout the realms of visual art, textile, paper + printing, adornments, clothing, publishing, music, sculpture, herbalism + spirit.”

The Earthlodge Center grounds expands 10,000 square feet and provides a safe, spiritual community center for women and queer folks of all generations (from youth who are just coming out to elders) to transform, heal, restore balance within and celebrate all aspects of our lives. The safe space of the Earthlodge transforms the shame of being queer into the power of being queer while healing any sense of separation or inability to integrate into society in a way that is whole, healthy, and happy. We do this through reconnecting with nature, providing and teaching of rituals and ceremonies, self reclamation through sharing our intentions and stories within the community, sacred crafting (talismans etc), meditative journeys, emphasizing healthy cuisine through community dinners post ceremonies, and creating and maintaining sacred grounds and ritual space.
