There are spaces inside me reserved only for you.

O corpo como território. O território como superfície de inscrição.

O lençol é uma arquitetura mínima da intimidade: lugar de desejo, sexo, cuidado, ausência e vestígio. Sobre ele, os corpos deixam aquilo que não conseguem conter suor, sangue, lágrimas, memória.

Mas quem é esse you?
O amante. O desejo. O vírus. O Estado. A memória. O território.

Foucault pensou o corpo como lugar de exercício do poder; Anzaldúa, a fronteira como espaço de contradição; Butler, os corpos que podem ou não ser reconhecidos como vidas; Mbembe, o poder de decidir sobre quem pode viver e quem pode morrer.

Viver com HIV é habitar essa contradição: um vírus pode ser indetectável e sexualmente intransmissível, mas ainda produzir estigma, criminalização e fronteiras.

O mesmo corpo que pode ser desejado em um território pode tornar-se suspeito em outro. O mesmo desejo queer que constitui intimidade pode ser criminalizado.

O corpo torna-se território.
E o território, uma espécie de corpo.

O lençol torna-se, assim, uma cartografia íntima: uma superfície onde as fronteiras entre corpo, desejo, lei e território deixam de ser estáveis.

Não se trata apenas de perguntar quem pode entrar.

Mas quem pode permanecer, tocar, desejar e existir sem transformar o próprio corpo em explicação.

There are spaces inside me reserved only for you.
Talvez toda intimidade seja uma fronteira.
E talvez toda fronteira esconda uma intimidade que ainda não aprendemos a reconhecer.

Obrigaids @macdowell1907 and fellows pelo suporte ❤️

! we are excited to share images and updates from our recently completed Historic Renovation Project for Kiefer Public Schools ~ shown here just prior to move-in.

This 30k sf facility will now house 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students in the long vacant / 100+ year old school building in Kiefer, OK.

…some goals in this work were to highlight and coordinate with the historical nature of the building, update facilities, and thoughtfully reprogram space with contemporary educational amenities.

Also of note are the many large scale / environmental graphics which are derived from some special access to the KPS photo archive going back a century (or more).

We extend our gratitude to Superintendent Shaw for his trust and friendship in this important work.

A powerful new exhibition is coming to Oklahoma Contemporary in 2027.

"I Know Someone Wonderful" brings together artist Aaron Jones and community activist Kristi Williams in an immersive exhibition curated by Lindsay Aveilhé.

Inspired by Tulsa's historic Vernon African Methodist Episcopal Church in the Greenwood District, the exhibition features suspended, bell-like domes that blend storytelling, faux-finishing, experimental printmaking, and archival audio from the church. Together, these intimate architectural forms create a space for reflection and invite visitors to engage more deeply with Vernon's enduring history and legacy.

Founded in 1905, Vernon AME Church is the only surviving Black-owned structure that remains intact from the era of Historic Black Wall Street. Known as the "Grandmother of Greenwood," it continues to serve as a place of resilience, refuge, and community more than a century after its founding.

"I Know Someone Wonderful" will be on view June 17–November 1, 2027, in the Mary LeFlore Clements Oklahoma Gallery. Admission is always free. Learn more at okcontemp.org/wonderful.
