“Introducing our Heart poet for November, @rose_helenc!
Rose Cunningham is a photographer and writer whose work seeks to define queer desire as surrealist praxis. Her research delves into the theory of eroticism, not simply as sexual activity, but as a playful rejection of heteronormative capitalist reproduction. Her subversive poetry and images are often paired together as an auto-theoretical means of entangling sexuality, gender, and erotic desire.
Come over and read their beautiful poem!

I am thrilled to announce that I have been selected to be a part of the 2024 Fall Bridge Program at the Hyde Park Art Center curated by Yoonshin Park.
I’m so excited participate in engaging conversations with other local artists and to prepare for a cumulative group show in January.
“The Bridge Program fosters generative dialogue among a select group of artists (10 artists max), in a seminar-style course designed to push your art practice into new realms. You’ll work in an intensive, small-group setting to refine project ideas, better articulate the central concerns of your practice, deepen the conceptual grounding of your work, and situate your practice within a wider art world context. You’ll participate in critiques, writing sessions, essay discussions, online readings, and peer to peer visits.“
