Octavia's Mail is an installation set up in the Octopus Garden, a community garden in the Friendship neighborhood of Pittsburgh, which enables visitors to write kind messages to one another. Whether it's advice, encouragement, or a fleeting thought, Octavia's Mail seeks to bring a sense of intimate connection during a time of social distancing and isolation due to COVID-19.

Postcard designs mixed analog painting with playful typography—
if the world were sending me a sign that everything was going to be fine, what would it look like?
