I’m heart broken. There aren’t enough words to honor her legacy, to thank her for my being able to live the way I do as a queer woman in America. She worked and fought for all of us until quite literally the end, and it is now our job to take up the mantle. We owe it to her to stand up for what’s right, to carry forward the fights for progress so that equity and equality can actually come to fruition in the future of this nation. Today we cry, we mourn, but tomorrow we fight. WE MUST VOTE in her Honor’s honor. (first image is by Sebastian Kim / August; second image unknown) @ Gayborhood, Philadelphia

I’ve been considering notions of reorientation (imposed vs chosen) within existing systems. The pain, the growth, loss, discovery, recovery, and the constancy of becoming. I finally finished this one: Reorientation 2020, encaustic (@rfpaints), pencil, and paper on panel, 18 x 24 (After some failed experiments followed by the slow building of painting, drawing, and sculpting processes.) #NeverthelessShePersisted . . . .... . . #artandlanguage #languageispower #intersectionalfeminism #lgbtqart #lgbtqartist #logophile #painting #phillyart #picoftheday #poetrylove #poetryofig #poetryofinstagram #textart #textbasedart #textbasedartist #textbasedartwork #vispo #visualpoetry #wordart #wordsmith #girlswholikegirls #gay #queer #queerart #queerartist #artcontemporain #artecontemporanea #contemporaryart #kunst See more
