With four pieces — one a soundscape — the exhibition is a visual and interactive experience that is both personal and universal.
A parent herself, LaFleur’s exhibition is the beginning of a larger picture. LaFleur is an associate professor of new media art and a faculty affiliate in women’s and gender studies at the University of North Texas.
She is also an interdisciplinary artist who incorporates queer and feminist ideologies into her art. She has exhibited at South By Southwest in Austin, TATE in London and the Czong Institute for Contemporary Art in South Korea.
