ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This shadow-boxed framed poem uses gay conversion therapy books as canvases for transformative poetry, asserting queerness as a powerful gift. By turning harmful words into uplifting art, the project highlights the resilience of the LGBTQ2S+ community. Rooted in the artist's experiences with homophobia, the burnt wood symbolizes the damage of hate, while the art itself stands as a testament to strength and positive change. The redaction of the original narrative transforms its meaning.
