Exhibition Tour Friday July 26th @ 6PM

Closing Reception:
Friday, August 30 
  7 - 9 PM 

Taking the form of the set of a fictional dirty picture, this solo exhibition recontextualizes various personal archives of pornography magazines and bootleg gay VHS tapes using experimental approaches to remove snippets of material, footage, and imagery. Imagined through a weathered blue billboard and the set of a dreamlike film, Dirty Picture delves into themes of fantasy, absence, personal narrative, gender and intergenerational queer identity.
