i am so excited to share the completed, beautiful, 2027 sinister wisdom calendar!! 🌟❤️‍🔥💧🌀

this is my fourth and final year curating/designing the calendar and i couldn’t be more ecstatic that this year’s celebrates new lesbian photography while paying homage to The Blatant Image, a magazine of feminist photography that published three issues between 1981 and 1983. Published by Rootworks, a womyn’s land group in Oregon, The Blatant Image challenged photographers to create images that explored lesbian-feminist issues and resisted heteropatriarchal stereotypes.

The images within this calendar expand on these ideas by exploring both lesbian imagination and lesbian reality. Some experiment with abstraction, materiality, and invention. Others document our communities plainly: life in its ordinary, mundane beauty. Collectivley, these artists remind us that photography is never a fixed medium— and lesbianism is never a fixed category.

Truly thank you endlessly to all of the included artists @jsp_icer @yvelizra @sophiabcutino @morgan__elena @thechromaticsheep @andinamarieosorio @alinabalseiroart @a8lia @shiaconlon @camille.lenain @photofelli @tomorrowblakechapman 🩷🩷🩷 thank you to JEB (Joan E. Biren) @jebmedia for allowing me to include a wonderful quote from her essay “Seeing Through Our Own Eyes” which was originally published in The Blatant Image no. 1 (and of which ive included two screenshots in this spread). lastly i have to, of course, give thanks to Julie Enszer @julierenszer for her trust and to everyone at Sinister Wisdom who has helped produce, layout, promote, and celebrate the calendar.

If you’re interested copies are available for purchase via the link in @sinister_wisdom’s bio or their website :-)

Early Sunday morning walk along the Rio Grande. I saw a few ducks and some very aggressive moths/monsters that apparently love black fabric.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the opening of “In This Light” at the MACC @elpasomacc !!

These projects are created with my friends, family and community, so it meant a lot to share the space with all of you ❣️

Thank you so much again to @pico.dv and @maintainstudio, and everyone at the MACC for this opportunity, it still feels unreal 🥲

The braid photographs were made with my nieces and cousin, with braids by my cousin Angie 🎀

The exhibition is on view through May 31.
