  TRAVELING ART EXHIBI

A  visual response to

    RAVELUNRAVEL.COM


Welcome to the special blog series to showcase the  
Unraveled Traveling Art Exhibit 
Unraveled is a traveling art exhibit based on the themes 
explored in Project Interfaith's RavelUnravel.com.
RavelUnravel.com is an interactive, multimedia website featuring  more than 1,000 short video interviews of people discussing their  religious or spiritual identity, stereotypes that they have encountered,  and how welcoming they have found their communities to be.

The fifth artist in our series is Neil Orians and his piece called
MY MOST IMPORTANT SELF PORTRAIT YET #1 (MY ANXIETY IS REAL MY GENDER IS CONSTRUCTED)




My Most Important Self Portrait Yet #1
(my anxiety is real my gender is constructed)
Neil Orians
Digital print on kozo, stitching,
thread and needle on paper


This piece boldly questions the idea of gender identity.  Orians' masculine appearance and performance made his coming out a surprise to many. Many in the church thought he was confused or going through a phase. When Orians made this piece he thought about how those people in his former church would feel about the statement he created.



 Unraveled is currently moving to a new site
  Saint Paul United Methodist Church
(1144 M Street, Lincoln, NE 68508)
November 3, 2014 to December 1, 2014
