Posture recently launched a membership program in an effort to develop a living, active Posture community. If you’d like to learn more about why we made the decision to create this program, read this letter from our editor. Some incredible people have joined so far and we are excited to learn more about our new growing community. From time to time, we will choose a member to highlight on our site. Our chosen member is given a (not so easy) task to create a response that comes in two parts: video and written. For the video portion we ask that the member either show us up to three things that they love, or recite a poem/prose.
This week we have chosen Arno Mokros, a queer/trans writer and print artist based in Brooklyn, NY. He is coeditor of Little Pharma, an intersectional feminist zine dedicated to creating space for art and literature about mental illness. He also works at Fractured Atlas, a nonprofit org that helps artists and arts organizations with the business side of their work. Watch his personal video below and learn more about him:
