“The exhibition features a series of beautiful mixed media portraits from Liz and meditative metalwork sculptures from A Murrayl; taken together, they tell a story about where queer Southerners have come from and how we can build from those roots. 

Undergirding the Southern Equality Studios project is a devout belief in the powerful role that art and storytelling play in building community and in creating social change. The exhibition adds to a long legacy of activists turning to their art to speak out against injustice and craft a vision of what’s possible when we come together to create the world we believe is possible.”- Adam Polaski
