USWNT’s Tobin Heath’s Coming Out Art Says ‘I’m Gay’ in Block Letters
re—inc website states. The site calls the painting “a bold and brave structure that serves as an ode to the challenging process of personal discovery.”“Each square represents the uniqueness and multi-dimensional nature of a coming out experience,” the site says. “The intentional boundaries between each letter suggest our identities and journeys are not always completely connected.
There’s room to explore. To change. The words “I am” invite both confidence in asserting one’s truth, and also the power to question what’s true to you.
In each of our processes of becoming—there’s often flexibility in our identities. What if our identities could be built with the freedom and curiosity of a child playing on the floor with letter blocks?”The piece is being auctioned to re—inc members, with the bids ending tonight.
