Revelations in Queer Consciousness

Revelations in Queer Consciousness is a project about queer artists and their creativity. In a heteronormative world, where many LGBTQIA+ people must hide or censor themselves, the importance of 
supporting queer art and safe spaces in which it is produced 
cannot be taken for granted. In my many conversations with queer 
artists, and based on my own experiences, the creativity of queer 
makers is complex and multi-faceted. Identity for example, is a central topic in many queer artists work amongst many other subjects. The aim of this project was not to cast particular identities as subjects. This project began with me attending queer events and collaborating with anyone was wanted to take part. Art in its many manifestations can and should be a space where difference is celebrated. It can also be a place for queer artists to express their emotions and frustrations from difficulties they may have expreienced. This project mirrors some of my own experiences as a queer person as  well as being a space for my own creativity.
