Illustrations in "Unschooled Futures: Pluriversal Speculations"

Super stoked to be part of the new edited collection Unschooled Futures: Pluriversal Speculations, edited by Petra Mikulan and Nathalie Sinclair!

The volume gathers a truly interdisciplinary group of contributors who speculate on what learning might become beyond the inherited infrastructures of schooling. Moving across philosophy, Indigenous studies, anthropology, mathematics, architecture, biology, art, and literature, the collection refuses education as a settled project and instead experiments with pluriversal, undisciplined, and speculative futures.

I created the illustrations for the book's four speculative “orbits”—Trading Places, Viewing Points, Scaling Through, and Breaking Stories. As the editors explain, these orbits emerged by deliberately resisting thematic groupings, instead connecting chapters through “contrast and accident,” creating temporary alignments that “lean more on diffraction, on the production of differences that matter.” It was a real pleasure to develop images that accompany these strange constellations. :)
