Jade Yumang cv contact statement
With the recent authorization of queer marriage, the
gay culture in North America has been sublimated into popular culture. This
consent or acceptance has prompted me to investigate the new identity of being
queer. What do we have to gain in being accepted or tolerated into a society
that for the most part has denied us? Radicalism in the queer (sub)culture of
the recent past has been replaced by the desire of queers wanting to be part of
the white-picket-fence dream. My work examines what those dreams entail and how
we are living a comfortable nightmare.
