Queer Alchemy: Works By Sarah Knight

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.
