Reclamation
At [margins.] 2024 we ground ourselves in reclaiming our space, truth, and context. We explore a creative practice that is ours to define, ours to make fully embodied.
In 2023, we explored releasing expectations for literary practice that are not defined to serve our greatest visions. Let us build upon that liberation, let us move to reclaiming what we know can be.
