Yoko. Born New Year’s Eve, 2025 (while I was mindlessly unaware of her existence, wearing purple lip, dancing under disco glitter). Cap sun, Gemini moon.

(Also finally got that shirt I’ve wanted ever since I saw Kelly O in it, ages ago 🌸🐶)

Print alert! Pick up the latest issue of because this one has a story I’ve been waiting to write for literal years: Ann Leda Shapiro, one of great artists of our time, who had been living and working right under our nose in the PNW for the past three decades. She is legend.

She is also the recipient of the 2025 Betty Bowen Award. Exhibition coming to next year!

You can also find the story online, 🔗 in bio.
