The Survivors
In this painting, the imagery and narrative have largely been shaped by the artist’s research on queer history, mysticism, and religious art, as well as his own queer experiences as an Asian immigrant living in the US. Like most of the works in this series, this painting focuses on fictional stories of queer defense and survival.
Through the lens of his own queer and immigrant life, Chinese-American painter Andersen Woof searches for ambiguous narratives in his practice that reflect the complexities of humanity.
