How do we navigate desire? How do we find pleasure, how do we experience our bodies? When are the moments that we feel light and at ease?
The exhibition “The Body That Loves You” explores themes of vulnerability, intimacy, and self-discovery. “The Body that Loves You” offers an opportunity to reimagine what a body means, how can it be redefined, and what it can do, through storytelling, self-documenting, self-defining. The work featured is a collection of black and brown queer artists who work with numerous modes of artistic production painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, collage, performance, and video art, that explore the complexities and nuances of black and brown queer experience.
