The Museum of Selective Homo Amnesia is a multi-media art installation, styled as a faux natural history museum of artifacts from an erased, mythical history of queerness. The exhibition consists of drawing, crochet, photography, hand-built cabinetry, and small sculpture in ceramic, plaster, wax, wood, and paper. The exhibition also includes a companion essay of fiction, written from the desk of a melancholy queer archeologist. The Museum questions origin stories about human sexuality and gender and proposes that our present identities would benefit if the past were imagined as more inclusive, fluid, and humane.
