#Repost @m_o_t_h_a ・・・ A small excerpt of archival materials and artworks from many different iterations of MOTHA’s “Trans Hirstory in 99 Objects” exhibition series represented in Girls Like Us magazine, the latest issue on “Biography “ @girlslikeusmagazine ‼️ ▪️ ▫️ #transhirstoryin99objects exhibition series (2015-2019) was a creative, critical, and expansive engagement with queer archives and trans #hirstory. Every show built toward 99 objects and artworks that attempt to narrate a cohesive trans hirstory in spite of the inherent institutional roadblocks and linguistic complications of doing so. A book that brings some of this material together(+more!) is in the making! ▪️ ▫️ Shows took place at - ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archive at USC Libraries @onearchives in Los Angeles, CA from March 21, 2015 to August 1, 2015 - Henry Art Gallery @henryartgallery in Seattle, WA from August 13, 2016 to June 04, 2017 - Legacy Art Gallery/ Transgender Archives @uviclegacygalleries @transarchives at UVIC in Victoria, B.C.
