About The Show
Queer Art Impact presents this eclectic showcase as an inquiry into the status of post-Stonewall sexual values as part of a weeklong festival, Come As You Are: NYC.
Get wet to the unwavering sounds of artist Baron, pleasure your senses with the intel-lectable "Busty Kitten," and intoxicate your spirit with the mystical formations of milDRED at this queer arts main-stage event. Artists also include the multifaceted Davina Cohen, dirty gay boy Mathew Heggem, and a piercing installation by Boston-based XRAY.
The showcase will featuring vocalist, composer, and performance artist Charlie Demos: He is a fixture in the New York City underground queer music scene blending a new sound of electronic and dark synth with emotional and provoking performance art pieces when he takes the stage. He is also a resident artist with several top-tier burlesque shows such as Auralfixia and Cabaret Cataplexy.
Queer Art Impact explores the conversation between politics, art and action. This New York City-based initiative is intended to bring together individuals and organizations who self-identify their body of work as queer. By supporting artists whose works challenge the hetero-normative, QAI seeks to embrace queerness and create opportunities for all artists - living in the political and social fringe - to move to the center. QAI is co-owned and operated by Mathew Heggem and Shalonda Ingram.
