This summer I spent a lot of time in Portland Maine participating in the MECA Alumni Artist Residency program. For five weeks I caught up on my much much neglected studio practice and churned out a bunch of work including a gay marriage photo shoot for the folks at Dirty Queer Magazine. The photos, made in collaboration with photographer Alexandra Silverthorn, along with an interview with me about my work with the Against Equality collective will appear in DQ#5 due out this fall. While at MECA I also screen printed some of AE’s newest snarky merchandise.
Just before the residency got rolling I produced an oversized broadsheet titled Down Is Not Up that was posted on the streets the night before Portland’s gay pride parade. The broadsheet was the size of an entire doorway and based on the work of the anonymous activist collective Pink Tank. You can download and print the broadsheet yourself here.
