Weeds Beasts Queers is an open, process based project a never ending sketchbook composed of collages and objects made from dried plants. They take the form of portraits, humanoid figures, queer bodies, and larger installations.
The project began in 2022, when I moved to Portugal (Serra da Boa
Viagem) and started systematically drying, cataloguing, and classifying plants: ornamental, medicinal, poisonous, and wild weeds.
The work has a performative character: it is a practice ofattentiveness, observation, and coexistence with plants thatbecome both material and collaborators in the process.
