Description: queer landscape is a visual experiment in locating queer passageways to other worlds. The montages are produced by overlaying archival 35mm slides to produce uncanny, dreamy landscapes. What makes these landscapes queer? Time & space folded over on each other, perspective gone slantwise, boundary crossings between here & there, then & now, the real & imagined. A kind of utopian sensibility: a sketch on the horizon, worlds imagined, drawn into being. Fantastical birds take flight toward a horizon punctuated by a chain-link fence: this aching desire for an impossible kind of escape. A blurry, enchanted forest takes root somewhere unlikely, unmoored from here & now: a somewhere else. Utopia a kind of fuzzy, out-of-focus intimacy, the feeling of a someplace else.
