"Designed for Deviance," was an evening of immersive artistry that explored the intersections of art, craft, intimacy, Queerness, authority, and play.
I organized and curated this collaborative exhibition featuring queer and trans artists, activists, organizers, and performers working in the medium of dance, music, piercing, power exchange, rope bondage, woodcraft and much more.
Featured artists:
Achaziyah
Aiden Marshall
Mr. R and arby
Nayeli Mzin
Sovereign T and Curls
Xray Aims
Across one evening, we guided the audience through a world where rhythm and stillness, pleasure and pain, reverence and abjection, trust and precarity, freedom and restraint blurred and bled together. The scenes were overlapping at times and occupying different parts of the space, allowing the audience to pick their own adventure and engage or spectate in different realms we created.
