BACKGROUND

I collaborated with a local, queer artist to create a database to increase awareness of and educate about species of plants, fungi, and animals that express multiple sexes, reproductive diversity, and non-heterosexual mating rituals.

PROJECT SCOPE, 2022

Conceptualizing and building a website to function as an interactive, online database that allows for public submissions of new species and sightings.

Finding Queerness in Nature to Build a Better Understanding of the World and Ourselves

FOR ANOTHER MOTHER

  • Visual identity guidelines

  • Content & copy generation

  • Public database website with embedded submission form and tracking map

Eli Brown is an interdisciplinary artist whose work in the field of queer ecologies spans sculpture, social practice, and public art. I connected with them through a Boston queer arts group after they had received a grant from the Independence Seaport Museum and the Penn Program in Environmental Humanities to contribute to the Ecotopian Toolkit's living archive. 

With my own ties to the subject matter, I was excited to help Eli's vision of Another Mother (originally Trans Natures) take shape. I designed, built, tested, and populated the searchable, online database. The embedded submission form instantaneously creates a new database entry that can be edited and managed by the site's admin. The site's visual identity - colors, fonts, and imagery - was created to match my client's aesthetic.

Since its creation, the database has grown from a dozen entries to over sixty entries, reaching beyond the Delaware River Watershed to the world at large.
