Out of the Artist, a free exhibition creating a safe and accepting space for local independent LGBTQ+ artists to creatively share their voice and personal experiences, free from restrictions and discrimination, is currently showing at Worthing Museum and Gallery till September 10, 2023.
Creator and coordinator Keira Thomas – who is a local poet and was event manager at Worthing Pride 2019 – said: “Having heavily been involved with supporting the LGBTQ+ community in various forms, I feel passionate about creating an open and safe space for local LGBTQ+ artists to creatively express and share their voice.
“Working with Worthing Museum and local artists to create the Museum’s first LGBTQ+ exhibition, is an absolute honour, as it aims to inspire and encourage LGBTQ+ artists, as well as people from other underrepresented communities.
“Full inclusivity is at the heart of the project, which is proudly represented amongst our exhibiting artists and their diverse, powerful and inspiring work. We welcome all to visit the exhibition, to support and be part of the positive and progressive future of Worthing.”
Creating progressive and symbolic history in Worthing, artists will play a significant role at the first LGBTQ+ exhibition at Worthing Museum.
An exciting contributor to the exhibition is Gil Mualem-Doron, an award-winning transdisciplinary artist, researcher, and curator, who produces art based on his lived experiences of intersectionality as a migrant, person of colour, and neurodivergent queer.
Other artists include Amelia Armande, Bryony May, Caroline Osella, Emma Clowsley, Gil Mualem-Doron, Helen Bedding, Joanna Barr, Kai Hilton, Karen Palzeaird, Keira Thomas, Kym Kovary, Leoni Thomas, LG, Mars Chicca, Robert Ryan, Stephanie Young and Tor Lloyd.
