Intimacy Exhibition // William Way LGBTQ Center
IDENTITY, PRINT, SOCIAL
Intimacy is the 18th Annual Juried Art Exhibition hosted by the William Way LGBTQ+ Center. For their first off-site juried art exhibition, artists were invited to respond to the theme “Intimacy”. Intimate confessions emerged from text found within various works: “TOUCH STARVD”; “Trans sex is holy”; “Becoming a man was the best decision I ever made”; “I just need somebody to love”. Some artists focused on reflection, baring a chest in the mirror, distorting old family photos, or documenting a holiday spent alone. Others documented intimate moments from afar, or intimate areas up close. Many of the works are incredibly small, and require closeness while looking. Ultimately, the 42 artists included in this exhibition share works that are emblematic of the closeness present and necessary within our community.
I created a brand indentity along with promotional materials for the exhibition. Working closely with the William Way Arts Committee the process began with discussions around the art work and the feel for the show. Many of the artists are still beginning their careers but we wanted the promotional materials to feel fresh, professional, and unique.
