DESCRIPTION
Part of our 2021-22 Residency Program, FLOATING and other movements through transition by LEO ALAS is a transformative space they created using mixed media to examine the depth of our concept of grief. The show opened on Friday, August 19, 2022 at Monte Vista Projects and ran through August 27.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
FLOATING and other movements through transition is an exploration of personal and political grief that reflect upon a series of interviews LEO conducted. The interviews elevate voices of people whose knowledge around grief is under-recognized– a florist, a teacher, a nurse, a hairstylist, a BDSM educator, a dancer, and a community organizer. Each person shared their perspective about what is missing in care surrounding grief.
