Join us in the opening of Sweet, Juicy, and Rebellious, works by Linye Jiang 江麟冶
"Fruit" was historically a derogatory term in Western culture, targeting gay men by associating them with femininity. In "Sweet, Juicy, and Rebellious," I reclaim this symbolism through Fruit Portraits—a series that challenges societal norms and celebrates queer identity and femininity. By transforming fruit, I project my personal experiences, desires, and frustrations onto it, redefining a traditionally innocent subject.
