I was invited to create an altar that incorporates my drawings in “Altar’d Continuum: Resistance and Empowerment” @museodenver I hope you can join me tomorrow for the opening reception from 6-9pm. I will also be performing there in drag during the First Friday Art Walk on October 4 at 7pm! Opening Reception: Thursday, September 12 from 6-9pm Artist Talk: Tuesday, September 17 from 6-8pm DRAG Performance: First Friday, October 4 at 7pm On Display: September 12, 2019-February 1, 2020 Guest curated by Danielle N. Cunningham and Mary Grace Bernard, this exhibition emphasizes the altar as both a physical and non-physical space for personalized ritual exchange between humans and the divine. By pairing contemporary artists alongside religious ofrendas, retablos, and other iconography from the museum's collections, the exhibition illustrates the altar's inherent transcendence of time and space. These new altars reject any singular context, operating as platforms of resistance through which altar-makers reinterpret traditional practices and reclaim power from mainstream institutions.
