Brick by bricolage: Adobe Punk 's decolonial remapping of Los Angeles.

This essay analyzes the Los Angeles-based theaterwork *Adobe Punk*, a collaborative production that explores punk subculture through themes of sustainability, intergenerational equity, and settler colonial history. Set in a 1980s Bell Gardens adobe squat, the play follows three young punk musicians of diverse backgrounds who engage in DIY (do it yourself) practices to reclaim urban space while confronting the layered colonial and environmental legacies embedded in their community. *Adobe Punk* uses bricolage aesthetics and soundscapes to connect punk's anticapitalist and anticolonial impulses with broader histories of land dispossession and cultural survival, highlighting tensions between individual freedom and collective responsibility. The work contributes to punk anticolonial studies by challenging dominant Anglocentric narratives and emphasizing the importance of transgenerational dialogue and decolonial reflection within punk's ongoing cultural and political practices.
