SmallDeeds

“Circular Dance” (because that is far easier to spell and pronounce than Myrmecochory) is seed dispersal by ants. If an itty bitty ant can help shape a landscape and feed an entire ecosystem, what is stopping us? We try to conquer the mountain before climbing the ant hill and forget that it all begins with one small deed.

The ultimate goal of Small Deeds is to make strides by taking baby steps. What we choose to create and consume leaves a big impact on the world around us. By embracing imperfections in existing materials (and herself), Jessica Battista adds her own personal touch, and provides an opportunity for conscious consumers to shop just a smidge gentler. Jessica sources previously loved items of clothing and gives them new life by block printing with stamps she has carved by hand. As Freelance Illustrator and Graphic Designer by trade, Jessica also sells reproductions of her illustrations in the form of fine art prints, greeting cards, and stickers.
