PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
“Family Friendly” is a loaded phrase for those who do not conform to the hetero-normative model – the paradigm often described as “normal,” “just regular,” or “traditional.”
This phrase, “family friendly” can be interpreted by the LGBTQ community as code for “not including me.” But, of course, gay, lesbian, transgender, non-gendered, gender-fluid, cross-dressing and queer people are very much a part of families all around the world.
This exhibit seeks to explore that fact, and to celebrate a broader more inclusive definition of family.
