"tired of being city" Ricardo Hardy - Artist Editions Sticker Sheet

This month’s Artist Edition is by our worker collaborator, Ricardo Hardy. The 2 piece sticker collection ‘tired of being city’? Is translucent, and meant for windows.

Work made on the traditional, ancestral territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Distortion/translation from the (Spanish) literary work of Luis Ar Osorno @luisbixhobixhin
