Seeking Sanctuary : Trans & GNC Closed Space Full Moon Opening Reception
WHERE: 1880 Hollis Street (aka The Khyber Centre for the Arts)
WHAT: Opening reception for collaborative exhibition, Seeking Sanctuary. This full-moon opening reception will be a closed space for trans and gender non-conforming/expansive community members. We encourage people to pre-register however, no one will be turned away at the door.
* There will be a public opening reception the following evening, 2023-07-04.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION: Seeking Sanctuary is a multi-phase project led by Mo Phùng and Mo Glitch with collaborators Arielle Twist , Brody Weaver, Excel Garay, Calendula Sack, Jacquie Shaw, Carmel Farahbakhsh, and Bria Miller, that explores trans joy, lineages, futures, and beyond, culminating as an exhibition. Layering portraiture, drawing and imaginations of trans sanctuary; archive, redaction, exposure and protection will guide the creative process. Attentive to the patterns of consumption and exploitation of trans experience, Seeking Sanctuary centers the subjects in the work while also sharing our wild and beautiful collective existence.
