“Elizabeth Suda’s company, Article 22, is named after Article 22 in the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Fittingly her products are the antithesis of the fashion industry’s factory-produced wares. Instead, Suda finds local artisans and collaborates with them on handcrafted goods with provocative stories about their origins—like this one about her newest offering, peaceBOMB bracelets.”

Monsters and Marilyns

Jesse Lenz presents: Monsters and Marilyns:

“CS Lewis once said “How monotonously alike all the great tyrants and conquerors have been”. This was the primary thought behind the series Monsters and Marilyns. Throughout history Fascists, Communists, Marxists, and Socialists have murdered and oppressed those who were under their rule, yet popular culture and propaganda have tried to make these monsters into heros and icons. Twisting peoples memories and brainwashing them into an Orwellian nightmare.”
