Overview
FORTUNE is a Philadelphia-based publication project, assembled by and for queer Asian publics, in the Year of the Pig 2019. Each of 12 monthly issues combines letterpress and risograph printing, features multiple contributors, and is released through community gathering.
FORTUNE is tended to by Andrienne Palchick, Heidi Ratanavanich, and Connie Yu; we are a collective of queer, Asian writers/artists who call Philadelphia, Home. Heidi is a sculptor, construction worker, and educator interested in the intersection of cultural sovereignty, ecology, and economy. Connie is a writer and performer attending to information— its transmission and precarity. Andrienne is a printmaker inspired by narrative, documentation, ritual, and celebration. Together, we make multiples.
