Artist Talk: Sarah Knight 

About

Join Sarah Knight for an artist talk about their work and process. End the evening with a special preview of their exhibition.

Queer Alchemy explores the pull between what is perceived as natural versus artifice and how each is given a value in art, object, and the queer/transgender experience. Sarah Knight is a transgender ceramic artist who uses experimental materials to create works that embody a “queer alchemy” and question if all matter is queer in a state of transformation. Knight’s current work is meant to foster dialogue about the hyper-categorization and politicization of gender identity, using ceramics as the medium that embodies both found and made, and honors the joy and process of becoming. These works also hold space for the grief that national anti-transgender legislation creates.
Public exhibition opening on Friday, October 4 at 6 pm.
