Pink triangle “Queer Spaces” signs were placed by RepoHistory at several NYC locations in the early 1990s to highlight sites of LGBT significance.
SUPER – THANK YOU
It has been an insane year, but I wanted to send out a massive thank-you to all
you wonderful people who have shown me massive support throughout this year.
Your kindness and generosity has been spectacular and at times genuinely
overwhelming. I am humble by how many of you take the time to read about the work to
gain a better understanding of its purpose. Creating art is a challenge at the best of times.
Creating art that participates in critical discourse focused on queer space, sexuality,
masculinity and the rejection of heteronormative modernist architectural space opens
up an exciting and thought- provoking process that I will continue to develop in 2021.
Thanks to you both LGBTQI+ Persecuted and Pandemic Architecture have sold out.
LGBTQI+ Persecuted is a ongoing series of book covers devoted to queer creatives.
There will be new works coming in 2021.
I am participating in group exhibitions in New York, Sydney and Melbourne in early 2021.
I will keep you posted.
Wishing you all the very best for 2021. xx

Blues Point Tower is considered by many Sydney residents to be inconsistent with its surrounding buildings and cityscape. Over time, many public figures have criticised it, or even called for its demolition. However, in 1993, North Sydney Council added the building to its local heritage register.
