The Art of Being Queer
Pineapple Black Virtual Arts
PBVArts
Developed in response to Covid-19 and the difficulties faced by artists and gallery goers, PBVArts is virtual extension of Pineapple Black Contemporary Art Space.
This virtual rendition of Pineapple Black’s existing exhibition space will feature a programme of monthly exhibitions running throughout 2021.
THE ART OF BEING QUEER
The Art of Being Queer VR Exhibition explores and celebrates queer artists and their work from around the globe. It provides an identity experience through which we assimilate the ongoing fight for queer representation not only in the art industry, but in mainstream media as a whole.
This exhibition is curated by The Art of Being Queer, a growing organisation and podcast that highlights the censorship queer artists of all mediums face every day, and provides a platform on which these artists can showcase their work that is otherwise underrepresented, rejected, or hidden altogether.
The exhibition features multiple artists, all of whom have had different societal experiences and individual sets of struggles linked to their identity. Through art of many types, these brave artists demonstrate that identity, in its purest form, is not defined by biology or culture, but by what is felt within.
