They Can’t Erase Us

They Can't Erase Us is a series that confronts the historical erasure experienced by marginalized communities throughout history. It was inspired by the renewed attempts to erase trans and queer individuals from public life. 

Employing a combination of synthography, subtle typeface, and glitch, the series seeks to  encapsulate the unyielding resilience and strength of marginalized communities. Here glitch serves as a profound analogy, representing both the attempted erasure and the resilience of marginalized peoples. It also stands as a metaphor for seeing beauty where others perceive error.

Collectively, They Can't Erase Us stands as a defiant force against the outdated divide-and-conquer paradigm. Its purpose is to energize and empower those who strive to construct a better, more inclusive world. Through this art series, I hope to foster a sense of empowerment, unity, and determination among individuals dedicated to building a society that embraces and uplifts every voice. I want this to be visual fuel that powers the courage needed to tell the true stories that make up our histories so that we can create a better future together.
