What is your gay activist superhero lady name?
My gay activist superhero lady name is Miss Rainbow
I have primarily used screen printing and had my work featured in a movement called Event Horizon which was a project used to alert the community about social issues.

What do you think is so powerful about a screen-print? Is it the fact that you can make so many reproductions at one time? How does that factor in to the whole "spreading awareness" thing?
I really love working with screen printing because like my primary photographic medium (pinhole) there is a rawness to it. You really have to get your hands dirty and connect with your project on not just an emotional level but a physical one. Of course, the mass distribution factor is appealing and important to me and is a big reason why I took the opportunity to speak out about my feelings on gay rights when this project was presented to me.
