By [Fractured Atlas](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/author/fractured-atlas)
January 24th, 2024
This past summer, the Fractured Atlas ecosystem welcomed Alberto Mejia as our organization’s new Chief Operating Officer. As the confetti settled, it was time to sit down and chat expansively with Alberto. He shares his personal definitions of artist support and solidarity, his hopes for the creative economy, and how fiscal sponsorship can fit into this complex puzzle. We hope you enjoy Alberto’s colorful window into Fractured Atlas’s work.

## [Seeding Collaborations: A Conversation with Michael López and Karl Orozco](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/seeding-collaborations-michael-lopez-karl-orozco)
By [Sophia Park](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/author/sophia-park)
December 22nd, 2023
For this Seeding Collaborations, we spoke with artists and educators Michael López and Karl Orozco who founded and run Risolana, a community risograph studio located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Risolana’s name is inspired by the New Mexican concept of la resolana, which is a south-facing wall where community members can gather together. Risolana offers public access to a risograph printer and runs a range of educational workshops and programs highlighting the potential of the risograph as a medium and tool for artistic and social change.

## [Returning to artmaking after taking extended time away](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/returning-to-artmaking-after-taking-extended-time-away)
By [Anastasia Wardhana](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/author/anastasia-wardhana)

If you’re an artist, you’ve probably experienced a moment—maybe even several—when you look back on a stretch of time and realize that you’ve created less art than usual, or even no art at all. Maybe you’re in the middle of some big changes, like becoming a parent, or attending to your mental health. You might be emerging from a particularly busy period, and just want to soak up some rest for the time being. Moving through different seasons is a normal part of both life and the creative process. But what happens when those short breaks in between your art sessions start stretching into weeks, months, or even years? How do we navigate longer, extended breaks away from our art practice and the emotions that may arise with them?

## [Becoming a Parent Artist](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/becoming-a-parent-artist)
By [Geo Ong](https://blog.fracturedatlas.org/author/geo-ong)
August 24th, 2023
Years ago, I had a roommate who built sets for local theater productions. I would come home from a closing shift and he would be painting a sign for some make-believe business. I would get back from the movies and he’d be hammering nails into some crude, unfinished structure. I wondered what it was like to move through the day the way he did, from project to project, seemingly paying little to no attention to what time of day it was, whether it was time to eat lunch or go to bed.
