In Us is Heaven serves as both sanctuary and site of confrontation. Negotiating heterogenous experiences and aesthetics, the exhibition’s works contend that Queer art is not marginal or other – it is everywhere, existing and persisting in the intersections of our cultural, political, spiritual and emotional landscapes. Running concurrently with Zanele Muholi’s Faces and Phases 19, which marks the geographic expansion of the visual activist’s seminal portraiture project, In Us is Heaven questions systems of regulation that enforce difference, shame and social failure, advocating for healing through the infinite resource of unbounded love.
