This book is a vibrant tapestry of Favianna’s artistic evolution—a dynamic remix of hand-carved linoleum block prints, screenprint textures, and political posters, reimagined into bold new compositions. Layer upon layer of ink, history, and activism intertwine, forming a living archive of her work from 2003–2025. Each page pulses with the essence of her practice, a visual testament to her lifelong commitment to artists as catalysts for social change.

Through decades of institution-building at the intersection of art and activism, Favianna has championed artists of color in the fight for justice. This book reflects that dedication, merging her most iconic posters and handmade textures with powerful quotes and contemporary printmaking techniques. Figures from movements around the globe—media justice, abortion rights, racial equity, and mutual aid—are woven into new, layered narratives.

A pivotal shift in her practice came in 2014, when acquiring an etching press opened the door to deeper experimentation. Handmade patterns, rich with her signature textures, now serve as the foundation for an ever-expanding visual language of possibility. This collection is both a celebration and an invitation—to witness transformation, embrace storytelling, and imagine new worlds through the power of art.
