- **Event Description**: Join us for the exhibit opening by printmaker and illustrator Anthony Corraro. 

Anthony Corraro is a printmaker and illustrator currently based out of Kansas City, MO. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration from Oklahoma State University in 2015 and his Master of Fine Arts in Printmaking from Wichita State University in 2024. Born and raised in Tulsa, Anthony grew up with a strong connection to the LGBTQAI+ community there. Through the now-closed Openarms Youth Project, he found a community that was supportive of his own journey of self-discovery and provided opportunities for him to pay that compassion forward. As a non-binary artist, he seeks to critique systems of thinking based on false dichotomies. His work resists concepts that rely on opposing static ideals in favor of a more nuanced and dynamic understanding. Anthony draws a great deal of inspiration from Eastern philosophy and queer theory to deconstruct and investigate traditional concepts of individuality and social constructions.

Artist Statement:
In this series, I aim to represent members of Tulsa's LGBTQAI+ community as individuals who have served as role models through their compassion, strength, and resilience. With the current trajectory of State and Federal laws, I have grown increasingly concerned for my friends and family who are at risk of losing their voices, their rights, and even their lives. Due to scapegoating and misunderstanding, these people who are invaluable parts of the Tulsa community have become demonized.

The portraits in this series are sourced from individuals within Tulsa who identify as LGBTQAI+; although not all are well-known public figures, these individuals' everyday acts of support and care are what sustain the fabric of Tulsa's queer community. They each hold unique stories and experiences, and this project is meant to express how their lives intersect with Tulsa in countless ways. Through their advocacy, art, labor, and aid, they shape the city in ways that are often unseen but deeply felt.

The portraits are made of loose dust, an amalgamation of different elements that come together to create something beautiful but susceptible to the slightest breeze or touch. My intention is not to show the vulnerability of the people themselves but rather to represent the precarious situation that they are in. The conditions surrounding queer life are ever-changing with policy, rhetoric, and public perception threatening to disperse what has been carefully built. Yet despite seemingly non-stop attempts to silence and oppress, the presence and stories of these individuals will endure throughout time. It is my hope to express just a fraction of that impact through this work and to offer recognition to those in the community who have remained strong for so long and will continue to do so no matter what may come.
