Thank you to everyone who came out to the opening of Bridging Dyke and Trans Feminisms and my artist talk last month! I’ll be at @dykearthaus this weekend for open hours ~ This Saturday 5/16 12-4PM. Come check out the art, chat with me, and share your new lore! ⋆·˚ ༘ * BRIDGING DYKE AND TRANS FEMINISMS ✧.* March 21 - June 21, 2026 In an authoritarian political moment strongly defined by overt anti-trans, anti-disability, anti-poor, anti-queer, racist and misogynist policy-setting in the context of an ever-growing police state, it is necessary that our intersectional communities build a tighter web of defiance, looking to feminist principles of solidarity and resistance to guide us. A solid foundation for bridge-building exists between two branches of feminism, Lesbian Feminism and Trans Feminism. In this exciting exhibit, six pairs of Philadelphia-based, multigenerational and multi-gender artists collaborated to create new work in mixed media, painting, sculpture, textiles, video, and zines. Months of dialogue and community-building produced this shared project of resistance. Carrying politics in their bodies the artists responded to each other, their communities, and the world at-large. Referencing themes of monstrosity, queer joy and pain, being on the fringes, darkness, struggle, and lifelines, their work speaks collectively to the intersection of feminisms, community care, world-building, and the continuing fight for Trans and Queer liberation. New work by six pairs of intergenerational Dyke and Trans artists.
