A Tree Grows in Queens, new publication with Conveyor Editions!
My newest publication with Conveyor Editions, designed by Christina Labey, is being released in time for the NYABF and Arbor Day. A Tree Grows in Queens reflects on the many ways in which trees manifest into other things - myths, memes, monuments and more. Telling the stories of ten trees found in NYC (from the Harlem Wishing Tree to a Tulip tree considered the city’s oldest) the book explores topics from climate catastrophe and zombie capitalism to the radical power of touch and the place of memory making. Book available through Conveyor Editions here.
