Mari mari kom pu che! My name is Dani Kriatura (they/them).

I am a visual storyteller working with chalk, spray paint, watercolors, acrylics, sharpies, wires, stencils, found artifacts, clay, ink and paper to create DIY analog organic dank grimey magical surrealist sacred profane outsider folk art through murals, figurines, masks, and upcycled clothing items.

I am a diasporic non-binary/gendervoid auDHD adult refugee child/grown up street kid of multiple resistant displaced ancestries, based in T'kranto since the age of 4, living as embodied shadows, celebrations, revolutionary dreams and traumas of parents who fled the fascist military coup which took place in Wallmapu (Chile) in 1973.

I am racially and culturally mixed, and I claim Mapuche, Selk'nam, Basque, Andalusian, Lebanese and Russian Jewish lineages, legacies and contradictions. I draw inspiration from the people I know, love, fight for and live for, and the ecosystems of which we are an inherent part.

If you wish to see more of and/or possibly purchase some of my art, please follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/bodythudz_artisanworks

In the 19th century, Americans idealized wilderness, which they defined as natural areas without people in them. The issue with this, of course, was that the “wilderness” areas that they wanted to turn into national parks had people in them.

So what was it like for the people who lived in these “wildernesses,” what happened to them, and what evidence is left of their lives?

"Socialists want a world where, even if everyone won’t be happy, ordinary human misery will replace unnecessary suffering. This is a goal that is so ethically demanding we’ve yet to fully build a society that realizes it. Despite all the bombast about heroism and power, in the end fascism resonates because it appeals to our lowest instincts. It is so tempting to imagine one’s self a dispossessed racial aristocrat, in part because that makes it so much easier to push aside all ethical demands that get in the way of our greed and lust for power. Fascists strive impotently for a bigness the shrunken aspirations of their soul can never reach. Fascism is the banal dream of tiny men and deserves its place in the sewage of history.”

"Maybe First World "leftists" should quit arguing if X country is socialist and fucking do something in their own country."

"It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love each other and support each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains."

Map of US bombing in SE Asia during the Vietnam War. Black dots are 1000 lb. bombs. (I wonder what the point was of bombing the ocean.)

"Between 1965 and 1975, the United States and its allies dropped more than 7.5 million tons of bombs on Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia—double the amount dropped on Europe and Asia during World War II. Pound for pound, it remains the largest aerial bombardment in human history."
