McIntosh Gallery, 2018

Queer artists, equipped with resilience and a tradition of reclaiming and redefining performance, analyze, channel, emphasize, hyperbolize, and satirize. By putting themselves, their characters, their roles, their reflections and self-realizations in their work, the artists in this exhibition celebrate their queerness and enhance the discourses surrounding queer identity within the context of a heteronormative culture.  

The exhibiting artists reveal the complex, shifting nuances of intersectionality based on their lived experiences and aspirations for the future.
