What if you looked out a jet window and saw a city laid out in the shape of a man?
That's Beartropolis 2069 — RD Riccoboni's wildly imaginative aerial fantasy map of a city built for and by the bear community. Every road, district, and landmark is named after LGBTQ+ iconography, slang, and icons — from the Judy Garland National Forest to the Village of East Cher, from Oscar Wilde Peak to Morningwood Heights, from Fabulous to Butch to Dadbots to Dopplebanger Canyon. And yes — you fly in and out of RuPaul International Airport. Of course you do.
You could spend an hour just reading the map. Bold color, playful detail, and a deep sense of community pride make this one of RD's most beloved and conversation-starting works. The kind of art that makes people stop, lean in, start laughing — and then never want to leave the room it's in.
