queerness

white person wears an astronaut helmet with the face shield down, though it doesn’t quite cover their chin. They stand with one foot in front of the other and hold up an arm, softly opening their palm to face forward as if waving or saying “hold up”. Turquoise light makes shapes on their open palm and their neck. They’re dressed in textures of blue, glimmering pants and a blue bomber with cinched ruffled seams along the arms. Two stage blocks rest behind them, one with a pair of plush white boots set atop.

Calling All Querthlings

Xander Cobb

An extraterrestrial Gospel to absolve you of queer shame and anxiety – no promises.

Two dancers are intertwined, reaching upwards with their arm while in a lunge. Behind them, two other duets of dancers are intertwined making similar reaching shapes. The lighting is dim and warm, and the dancers wear multicolored pedestrian clothing. They are soft, with open palms and gently bent arms.

Staring Back at You

Rachel DeForrest Repinz

“Where the Violets Bloom” illuminates stories of queer love, joy, violence, and community.

A blurred image of a body in motion and in the air. The body is wrapped in a white fabric (potentially a bathrobe) and bent in a V-shape as if falling onto the bed beneath. Tossed fabrics above them are brown, baby blue, grey, and white - possibly other clothes. The bed is made but rumpled and evokes a hotel room.
