About
The South is engulfed in an imported mythos about itself.
It has devoured the words, and in turn, regurgitated them, resulting in a self-reliance and resiliency that mirror the same kinship Queerness must create to exist within the region with grace towards futurity.
"It's All a Song Here" utilizes the archive-generating systems of photography to explore power dynamics, ties to the land, diasporic tendencies, and the adaptations of tradition and folk lore that give definite shape to Southern Queer as an identity within the LGBTQ+ lexicon. Despite the South having the highest concentration of LGBTQ+ people in the nation, Southern Queer is often inseparable from migratory periods in metropolises that hold a reputation as havens, both in the eye of American culture at large and in the individual lived experiences of Southern Queer people. Within the work, moments of obfuscation and frustration provide an opportunity to consider whom and what has access, portraits frequently signify performance as a site of collaboration and community, while the urban and rural elements contrast in a confusion of healing that challenges assumptions.
