Frameworks of Resistance --
Democracy is not just in the message but in the making. This series captures the unseen labor of protest: the taped seams, the postal stamps, the fingerless gloves gripping repurposed Amazon boxes. These blank backs of protest signs reveal the hands that build resistance—fragile yet firm, improvised yet intentional. A study in construction, defiance, and the quiet infrastructure of dissent.
