STORIES & SPACES: Reclaiming the process of coming out
Stories & Spaces exhibition is centered on queer individual’s stories with coming out and the process and/or ongoing struggle to create spaces to forge their own personal identities.
This exhibit explores the struggle of coming out of the closet and being able to reclaim the process for themselves. Through the art and stories represented artists reflect and reclaim the space that is held for both trauma, strength and in turn celebrate the juxtaposition of collective identities and stories.
