About (M)olly

(Yes! I’m in the process of changing my name to Olly! You can call me Molly or Olly for now. More on this to come:)

Pronouns: They/Them

Olly is a white queer illustrator, PIC abolitionist, food growing enthusiast and community seed saver, who is committed to participating in the creative, collective work of building a liberated and flourishing future for all of us.  

Through their artistic and community based practices they explore themes of interconnectedness, spiritual ecology, emergence, accountability, community building, Prison Industrial Complex Abolition, Transformative Justice and belonging. 

Olly finds direction and purpose in recognizing the power our radical imaginations have in shaping the world we live in and knows that this is one of our most essential tools. Olly hopes their work can be a small contributing part of creating our new culture, grounded in honoring the inherent value of all beings and pushing us beyond violent cultures of imperialism, white supremacy, and capitalism toward a culture of accountability, collective wellness and abundance.
