Queerisphere is about queer performance and its recent shift to online platforms. Such platforms have enabled the formation of entirely new communities, as well as forms of support that have become increasingly rare in physical spaces due to rising gentrification, and more recently the COVID-19 pandemic. The exhibition features works created and performed on social media platforms by Patrick Arias, Seth Sanker, Julian Burzynski, Adeola Olakiitan and Alfredo Aguayo, with a live event sponsored by Club Quarantine on Zoom, a drag performance by New York queen Neon Calypso, an interview with Coco Deville, and various other performances, as well as an online component at queerisphere.com.
