We wanted to create a collective art party on our own terms, a safe space for the girlies to dance and celebrate our community of outsider artists. We produced an all inclusive night of performers, dancers, queers, trans, bipoc and disabled creatives. The first show was held in what was called 2120 Port St. New Orleans, it is now known as Material Institute. To pull it off we organized a fundraiser held at MusicBox Village, auctioning off works donated by our community. That funded the materials for artists. Still one of my most cherished moments is basking in the party performances that one night only. Forever grateful for my co-creator and friend Kat Hoban, we made a nice scene happen.

Above images show my personal installation for the 2017 Creme De Le Femme, "Fountain of Blood", made with discarded wood molding, for the basin I welded trash sheet metal that hung from the wood wall, plaster casts, and silver platters. Three vagina's bleed, dripping into the basin. You are to kneel on the red satin cushion placed before it.
Below are images of the works, 2017 showcase.
