So proud to be a co-curator of this incredible event. Breaking Code: Intersections of Queerness and Madness
Part of the 2014 National Queer Arts Festival
June 9th, San Francisco LGBT Center
Many of our communities have not yet embraced candid conversation about mental health. On June 9th, 2014 seventeen Queer and Trans artists will come together to claim the ways madness informs, complicates, and sweetens our lives.
For many, speaking about mental health is yet another coming out process. Breaking Code showcases visual and performing artists exploring the ways ‘Queer’ and ‘Crazy’ have been forced together and forced apart. Together we use the tools of reclamation and subversion, that many of us develop as we come to a queer identity, to rethink our relationship to mental health.
With power and vulnerability, we continue the legacy of resisting shame by claiming our wholeness.
