POSTGENDER EUPHORIA
project oneIn the participatory art series, Postgender Euphoria, I provide space to collectively envision a post-gender binary society through a series of audience engagements. The artwork in this exhibition features three pieces from this series. I am a transgender, genderfulid, genderqueer, and agender person and this series allows me to cathartically deconstruct social gender dysphoria. I invite the audience attending these works to engage in a curious dialogue with others by responding to the text and visuals presented in this series.

IMAGINATION INITIATIVE
project twoImagination Initiative is a multi-site artwork featuring children and teens from Boulder County. Commissioned by the City of Boulder, this project took place at libraries and sites throughout the County of Bouler between November, 2022, and February, 2023.
Process: youth were invited to draw their own storybook character from their imagination. Characters were reviewed by the Boulder Teen Advisory Board. Highest rated and selected artwork has been made into wall graphics for placement around the library system. Children and their caregivers will be invited to the library to see creations invented by their communities and themselves. Characters created through public engagement and transformed into digital assets were made into a scavenger hunt with prizes.
