This portfolio explores the complex life of history in everyday queer experience. Artists will be generating interdisciplinary new works that explore narratives of familial history, racial formations, nation, migration, identity and socio-political transformation. How our histories inform our paths as queer makers today is the focus of reflection. Artists have the option to utilize technical support from the portfolio organizer, Paper Buck, artist, grassroots organizer and Print Studio Manager at Kala Art Institute in Berkeley, CA. It Never Ends! hopes to encouraging politicized creative discourse around the intersections of cultural history, race, nation and queerness, among all else, and will be available online and in alternative editioning mediums following completion. The portfolio will also travel to the Historisches Rathaus in Dringenberg, Germany to be exhibited as part of the exhibit History In the Present, in June 2015.
