GUERRILLA ARCHIVES
Official records tell a story. They decide who is counted, what is remembered, and how a life is passed down through time. But for queer, femme, and BIPOC people, these archives are often weapons of erasure, their categories too small to hold a complete life.
Guerrilla Archives is a rebellion against those official histories and their keepers. It rejects the state’s ledgers—with their narrow definitions of legacy through surname, property, and procreation—in favor of the records people create for themselves: the story of an heirloom, the mark of graffiti, the echo of a chosen name.
The artist's own name, itself chosen, appears again and again, not as a signature, but as a visual element of defiance. It is a tag scrawled across time, unapologetically recording an existence that official history would otherwise forget.
