The painting is  part of a series of 4 works. They are related to an article of mine: An Emancipatory Topology of Desire (2020); World Futures, 2020, 76 (5-7), pp 420-433. In this article I describe different forms of emancipatory desire.
The paintings imagine different qualities of desire from a queer, non-binary perspective. They aim to inspire appropriate strategies for action, namely the playful profanation of social fetishes, courageous deviation from social norms, and radical unbecoming from the roles ascribed to us.
What boundaries in our heads and life realities could be shifted if we gave these qualities of desire space within us? What spaces of possibility could arise as a result?
