The histories of queerness have been largely invisible and hidden, sometimes by design. To create future relics from my own queer experience is to make that history tangible - to provide concrete (ceramic) evidence of a queer world that once existed and will always exist. “FANCY PRONK (The Queer Transcendence of Rotting Fruit)” uses the visual vein of 16th century Flemish and Dutch still life paintings to subvert classical symbolism reflecting queer identity, material culture, and class.
