Wayfinding: Human Intervention — Exhibition Catalog / Zine

Published alongside the exhibition Wayfinding: Human Intervention at Roots & Culture in Chicago (July 25 – Aug 24, 2025), this zine expands on themes of navigation, ecology, and resistance through essays by Jordan Barrant, Talia Kimberly Wright, and Tempe Stewart.

The publication accompanies works by artists Aidan Anne Frierson, Maya Davis, and Renee Royale, who employ methodologies of wayfinding to respond to colonial interventions and create their own material-based interventions.

Part catalog, part critical reader, this zine situates the exhibition within conversations of Black Geographies, Feminist Ecologies, and restorative cartographies, offering reflections on memory, migration, and humanness in relation to land and landscape.
