J. Morrison “HOMOCATS: STEP YOUR PUSSY UP!”
Christopher Stout Gallery
This event has ended.
Christopher Stout Gallery, New York presents Brooklyn-based artist J. Morrison’s HOMOCATS: STEP YOUR PUSSY UP! at their first NYC gallery exhibition.
J. Morrison first created the HOMOCATS during a 2010 residency at the Anderson Ranch in Colorado. Morrison’s new site-specific installation features wallpaper, screenprints, and related multiples that explore both the abundance of cat culture on the Internet and the intersection of art & activism.
Playing off the viral phenomenon of the feline, the HOMOCATS continue their quest to fight phobias, propose equal rights, combat cultural stereotypes, and challenge social norms and stigmas. Paying homage to historic queer symbols such as the rainbow flag and pink triangle, Morrison’s work also pays a nod to pop art and pop culture with playfulness and humor.
On the verge of our first female presidential nomination, and quoting RuPaul’s song “Step it Up,” the HOMOCATS propose you STEP YOUR PUSSY UP!
