Braving the Body is an ongoing project that includes generative workshops, artist conversations, and a poetry anthology that reflects on the experience of living in a body. We believe poetry serves as the connective tissue between lived, embodied experiences and the rich internal world. What does it mean to be in a body that can both betray us and bring us ecstasy–a suffering body, a mothering body, a body in its “prime,” a body amid change, a body that has experienced trauma or neglect, a body that is simply trying to get its morning coffee or move out the door? What stories of our bodies can we share that will offer radical acceptance and restoration for ourselves and the world?

SplashLand Magazine: queer owned and operated, is a quarterly print magazine/independent publishing house. We work both in the digital and analog environments exploring and questioning how these two intertwine and disconnect. This is one of our defining features: fully embracing this technological advanced world we have all ended up in while recognizing that there is a special form of connection that comes from holding an art work in your hand. Conceptually we are a string telephone between the world we create online and the world we create on paper. The digital, physical, ephemeral, and permanent are blurred. At Splashland, we also want to recognize that a magazine is not a new idea: SplashLand is informed by bookmakers before us and inspired by those to come. “New” is not the point. We believe in the power of repetition, in practicing, in profuse representation, in opening even more space, in lifting people up over and over again. Although we launched our website officially on Leap Day 2024 we have been publishing print works under this concept for 2 years. Our first official print issue will be released at the end of May.
