“Join BLAA in celebrating the artists and work in our latest exhibition, You Think It’s ____, But It’s Really ____ with a reception on August 5, 2016 6-8pm. The reception will include performances by Xray Aims, Darren Black, Heather Kapplow, and Sopheak Sam.

BLAA’s tenth show, You Think It’s _____, But It’s Really _____, is an exhibition of work by artists living and creating at the intersection of LGBTQIA issues and culturally defined notions of “disability”. Working through forms of invisibility produced at this intersection, these artists have developed different understandings of the labels most often meant to correct such an invisibility: “Disabled,” “Queer,” “Artist.””

Featuring: Xray Aims, Lauren Alindogan, Joe Balestraci, Darren Black, Carl Bowlby, Steven Cabral, Ken Diaz, Ariel Bassen Freiberg, Catherine Graffam, YoAhn Han, Madge of Honor, Heather Kapplow, LB Lee, Kyri Lorenz, Terrell Lowry, Chris Maliga, Daniel Lloyd-Miller, Ty Muto, Rose Ranauro, Sopheak Sam, Sasha Seaman, Cai Steele and Courtney White.
