“On a hot Saturday night in July young and old alike came out to Domy Books on the East side to check out the terrific photographs, installation, and video by artistic collaborators Otis Ike and Ivete Lucas. If an opening is an index to an exhibition, then this exhibition was full of spectacle, fabulous trans women, and enough glitter to go around. Oh, and let’s not forget performance artist Christeene Vale’s inventive and acrobatic movements employed for her song and dance. I couldn’t see past the crowd during this performance, but the astonished look on the face of Domy’s Russell Etchen made it all very clear. It was a jaw dropping night.” – Katie Geha
