THIRSTY THIRSTY
Completed as a designer at Bodega Ltd. in 2022
as part of a visual podcast series for the project Salonnière.
The project Salonnière is a trend + culture experience that offers context by exploring themes through
contemporary cultural + historical source material.
Through dialogue, we buttress themes and trends we see in the world in the form of audio recordings paired with artful videos.
This episode features a conversation with Alexis Schwartz, the founder of Thirsty Thirsty:
“an ancestral remembrance project disguised as the coolest food and wine club on Earth.”
Schwartz explains how Thirsty Thirsty’s mission is to regenerate Mother Earth deliciously.
They use the URL ecosystem of Web3 to transform IRL economies of regenerative farmers, wine producers and land protectors by unlocking resources and access that current structures overlook.

Rooted in ancestral wisdom, Thirsty Thirsty dives deeply into intersectional environmentalism
and seeks to reconnect all types of Earth people who tend the land.
They focus on the reciprocal relationship modeled by nature, rather than the extractive way we have lived for so long.
“I've been saying that Web3 is a technological remembrance of ancestral philosophies. Indigenous philosophies.
The major tenant of Indigenous philosophy is the interconnectedness of all things. Humans aren't in the middle of the circle. They're in the circle with the winged ones, those that swim, the four-leggeds. Our little sisters are the sacred herbs, the tree people, the tree spirits. We are a part of this circle. We are all interconnected in so many complex, intelligent ways.” - Alexis Schwartz
