Join Bea Webster for a BSL tour exploring two exhibitions: History is a Home by Trans Masc Studies and Carnal Desires by Sadao Hasegawa.
History is a Home transforms the gallery into a reading room and research space, bringing together queer ephemera, books, zines, and archival materials to imagine queer history as a site of belonging and connection. Alongside this, Carnal Desires presents a rare exhibition of gay fetish artist Sadao Hasegawa’s visionary paintings, where eroticism, folklore, science fiction, and fantasy collide in a vibrant queer universe. Together, the tour will explore collective themes across the powerful exploration of trans and queer histories, desires, and futures.
