ARTIST STATEMENT
I think of my work as a celebration of the resilient spirit of trans and non-binary beings. They are playful in their construction and question our understanding of binaries in the world through their existence and self-acknowledgment. My arrangements are divine, inviting the viewer to move into a space of transcendence. I invite our hunger for desire, beauty, and power.
These creations aim to propose a new path towards pleasure, which already abundantly surrounds us if we believe. This project is grounded in the belief that pleasure is our birthright.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Dom was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. After exploring community printmaking workshops in Chicago, they decided to start developing their style. Their prints are a representation of their experiences growing up in the black church as a trans, non-binary person. It’s a visual expression of the evolution of their authentic self.
