episode 35 : jessica marie mercy

In this episode Miranda speaks with Jessica Marie Mercy a printmaker, visual artist and self-identified “femme, queer bitch” from Seattle, Washington, whose artistic practice revolves around preserving and celebrating queer spaces and queer community through documentation. She does so with beautifully rendered relief works and photo-based screen prints all produced in vibrant, unapologetic colours which balance the rawness of a gig poster with the detailing of reduction woodcut landscape. In this episode we talk about growing in up a conservative small town in Eastern Washington, discovering queer culture, and her love of drag performance and culture.
