Succession: objects that hold queer culture: MFA Thesis - Printmaking

Abstract

Through these diverse objects and artworks, the body of work displayed in my thesis not only highlights the rich tapestry of queer culture but also invites viewers to reflect deeply on their own experiences and perceptions. By intertwining historical relevance, considered printmaking techniques, and creative craftsmanship, my work champions the resilience and creativity inherent in queer communities. The thoughtful presentation of each piece fosters a dialogue that transcends mere visual appreciation, encouraging introspection and a greater understanding of the complex, yet beautiful, journey of queer identity. This exhibition ultimately serves as a celebration of the spirit and tenacity of LGBTQ+ individuals, marking their indelible and inextricable impact on art, history, and society.
