About Stephanie:
Love the Living; Fight the Machine!
"I make art about two main topics:
1. Social transformation away from class divisions and toward a truly sustainable future
2. Adorable funny plants and creatures, inspired by encounters where I live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (traditionally Tequesta territory)
In both cases, my art is about connecting with one another in our common desire for a world without exploitation, oppression, extraction, objectification of living beings, and ecocide (which is omnicide, more accurately)."
