"queer not as being about who you’re having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but queer as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and has to invent, create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live"- bell hooks
at home is a group show that highlights visual stories of queer intimacy and domesticity. Though queer and trans visibility is on the rise, the portrayal of queer life is sensationalized and generalized as a combination of partying, suffering, and eroticism. This show explores a nuanced experience of queerness and private worlds using chosen families, nuclear families, and queer domestic spaces. Queerness is a pervasive experience and thus flows throughout all aspects of life- here we see the process of finding home within ourselves and our community. This group show includes photography, painting, fiber sculpture, ceramics, and video work by
