Description
IMDA MFA Program alumnus Jaimes Mayhew -10 and Rahne Alexander will discuss their Baltimore Museum of Art installation Queer Interiors, which is presented as part of the BMA’s Commons Collaboration initiative related to Imagining Home. The project conceived and produced by Rahne Alexander and Jaimes Mayhew is comprised of a larger-than-life bed, shelving and other furnishings, personal artifacts, and a multimedia wall quilt known as the Baltimore LGBTQI+ Home Movie Quilt. This component of the installation pays homage to Baltimore album quilts and the AIDS Quilt, with the aim of presenting a crowd-sourced multimedia portrait of the city’s LGBTQI+ communities. The exhibition is now on view at the BMA through August 31, 2017.
