SUMMARY:Muck and Sparkle: The Magic and Pain of Survival
DESCRIPTION:Queer Youth Productions\, Galeria de la Raza & Qcc present\nMuck and Sparkle: The Magic and Pain of Survival\nJune 2\nGaleria de la Raza\, Studio 24\, 6pm\nEPLi\, Ariel Springfield & Madhvi Trivedi\nFREE \nWebsite: www.queeryouthproductions.com\nSocial Media: https://www.facebook.com/events/463631963830713/ \nWith hands outstretched to the future\, Queer Youth Productions’ traveling exhibit\, Muck and Sparkle: The Magic and Pain of Survival\, brings forth the art of expanding hearts and the paradox of possibility in a candid array of artwork from LGBTQIA2S youth. The show brings with it the specter of struggle that youth maneuver to (re)claim space and carve out the complexities of their identities. \nAlongside powerful depictions of self determination\, this exhibit transcends the two dimensional\, offering a unique glimpse into the less-often-heard-seen-thought-touched-interiority of vulnerability that comes with uncovering (un)truths of gender and sexuality. By centering voices of queer youth\, we are able to reflect upon work that has been done in queer communities as well as build intergenerational conversations for envisioning supportive and liberating futures. Within these artworks is a resilient force of magic that speaks to a collective and time-defying queer tongue. \nARTISTS’ BIOGRAPHIES \nFunded in part by The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence\, Sister Grant. \n \n  \nDiscipline: Visual Art \nCreating Queer Community
