April 21st Visitors Welcome Gallery, LA

Lady Scumbag World Premiere and Closing Party

Conceived and curated by the incredible Kim Ye. This project features my work Sea Bottom Fornicata as well as works by some of my favorite people- Ciriza and Donna Dolore!

Showcasing the work of contributors to Ladyscumbag and a special screening of LSB's Hollywood debut in ANGIE, this event is truly an ouroboros.

Like a snake eating its own tail, LSB decomposes the codes of femininity to create a new field of potential for femme rebirth and rejuvenation.
