The best of both worlds

About the work

'The best of both worlds' is a visual and personal investigation of how I can embrace my current queer identity by means of artistic expression. Growing up in a conservative and Christian bubble is not easy for a queer. To heal and grow, I went back in time to give new forms to my old memories. In this research into self-love within my queer identity, I discovered connections between Christians and queer people. What both have in common is a sense of unity, symbolised by the rainbow as messenger of hope.
