What impact do you hope this collaboration will have on the<br />

queer community and beyond?<br />

To be honest, unless it is a very specific project, there<br />

oftentimes isn’t specific intent. There is a shared intention<br />

of showcasing comfort in the skin that can perhaps make<br />

someone feel inclined to try to express themselves in ways<br />

that they potentially feared before.<br />

Can you share any plans or upcoming projects that<br />

The Queer Coven has in store for its audience?<br />

I’m currently working now on a print magazine called<br />

ICONIQA It will be a queer art book featuring ALOK and<br />

Amanda Lepore on our double-sided cover, as well as features<br />

on queer humans that live around the world. I have also<br />

started my Barcelona-based event titled ICONIQA.<br />

I will curate and produce four per year. We launched <strong>with</strong><br />

our headliner Violet Chacki and had Amanda Lepore and<br />

Berin-based goddess Hungry in July. I have Gottmik as our<br />

headliner for our October 15th event and I’m working on the<br />

headliner for our event on December 3rd.<br />

What advice would you give to aspiring creative curators and<br />

influencers who aim to create more inclusive spaces <strong>with</strong>in<br />

their communities?<br />

Don’t be afraid to explore.<br />

Don’t be afraid to fail.<br />

Stop looking at other people’s content for approval.<br />

Pause, Take a deep breath. See your point of view inside<br />

and create.<br />

What are your future aspirations and goals as an artist, and<br />

how do you hope to continue pushing boundaries <strong>with</strong> your<br />

work?<br />

I am a firm believer in alignment. I wish to continue on a path<br />

of open queer living and I will see what the world has in store<br />

for me. I am open.<br />
