the juice and the sauce Sep 5th • 6-8pm opening reception of my solo show, “i have no choice but to suck the juice out, and who am i to blame” @littmanandwhite. Curated by @safiyah.maurice Hello? Just thought I’d let you know about my show over @russoleegallery open till Aug 31 No you hang up first... i love you more... Shits rough out here, but i’m so grateful to have a life that’s filled with brilliant and loving humans. Thank you for always seeing me, supporting me and allowing me to be a part of your lives. 🖤 #cancermoonfeels [pictured “soft between the elbows” for @nceca 2019] “That which could hunger, could starve.” -Octavia Butler Excited to announce that 3 of my works (El Crecimiento Continúa, La Fruta de mi Obra & Ola de Piedra) will be on exhibition @potterynorthwest for “Queer Clay” curated by @devinwball. The show opens tomorrow (6/7/19) at 6pm, and runs through 6/28/19. Grateful to have been a part of such an important and challenging exhibition. Many thanks to the folks at @yalebritishart and @nastywomenconnecticut for opening up such a nurturing space where we can have difficult discussions and still see each other in our humanity. To Nate Lewis (@nloois) and Clare Barclay, it was such a pleasure to share space and connect (let’s keep in touch). Finally, thank you to @___niama___ and @nathanflis1 for seeing me and my work. I’m still recovering from my mid-west/east coast tour, but my heart is full. I’ve made so many new friends and participated in so many nuanced/enlightening conversations. And have learned lessons that I will keep with me always. ✨🖤 📸 by @yun______yu ♥️ My heart is so full! Thank you to @marvalarex @hell0biba @caitlin_mary_margarett @violett_femme t_femme for your artistry 🖤 @squirrel_haus_arts for your hospitality and @hydratedplus for these beautiful photos.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out on Sat! To my cohort & the organizers of @prequel_pdx, thank you for this amazing program and gifting me the support and confidence needed to push myself as an artist. I have so much love for you all! 🖤 Our group show “View From Here” will be up at @c3initiative until Oct 6. Go see it! My practice is evolving. I have never felt so sure and unsure of my myself. Unsure of where the path of my practice leads but feeling more and more solid in who I am as a person. It’s like the ground is shifting beneath me, not to swallow me whole but to lift me higher and lay out a web of paths before me. #SaturnReturnFeelings 📷: @lu_yim “backstage” at the @cvllejerx Ropa Vieja performance. Thank you @meadow.residency for giving me the opportunity to teach my first ceramics class! I learned so much and got to experience the joy in sharing my craft with such beautiful humans. Thank you all for such wonderful Sunday morning! 🖤🖤🖤 I’m teaching a ceramics workshop Sunday July 15th 2:30-4:30!
