About
In this moment, as the US marks a decade since legalizing gay marriage, and when people in power insist on marginalizing, isolating and denouncing LGBTQ+ communities, LACP insists on elevating love and acceptance.
We attempt to both imagine a world where no queer person feels ashamed for who they love and explore the nuances of human connection. This show seeks to highlight and demand visibility for LGBTQ+ voices, while celebrating an authentic experience of life, rooted in joy that is both specific to the queer community and universal.
This exhibition is organized as part of Matthew Finley: Lost and Found.
