My work focuses on the intricate relationship between spaces and the dynamics of power and identity, and I explore how these spaces shape and are shaped by the individuals who inhabit them. My research delves into untold narratives of the lesbian community in the US, reclaiming urban spaces as political arenas and showcasing the diverse ways in which individuals assert their identity.
By reimagining urban spaces, I explore how the imagining and imaging of these spaces can be a tool for change.
I want to thank the Lesbian Herstory Archives in New York City for their generosity and hospitality — for allowing me to roam freely through the archives, explore the images, and for their trust and willingness to share their knowledge.
