About:

A multidisciplinary artist who creates under the moniker of Hay Kidd, Greg Rose finds it paramount that they reflect their experience as a black queer non-binary artist living within the reach of poverty and under the knee of racism and homophobia. Rose believes having representation of those stories is necessary to creating new terms and conditions in our social contract, where all experiences are not only valued but protected. In reflecting on Courage, they say, “Courage is a virtue and virtues are the means between two vices, one of deficiency and one of excess. I would love for you to take a second and allow yourself to be transported by the vivid colors to a whimsical landscape and stand in courage—not just now but always.”
