Installation Art by Jason Wyman: soft defiance

Title: It's Queer Pride 2019. The before times. When all through rose-colored nostalgia seemed golden. When we were free and dancing in the streets defiantly confronting police demanding our bodies move back. With snipers on rooftops overlooking. And I, too, too sad from too much damn darkness transformed into Sad Clown. And danced anyway. And when the evening ended, I tried to wash it all away.

Details: Image from 2019. Silk Print 2023.

Dimensions:  24" by 42"

Materials: crystal voile cotton silk, stainless steel towel bar, bath sponge, bath towel, plastic bottle, tape

Show: soft defiance at Harvey Milk Center for the Arts, June 17 to July 15, 2023. soft defiance is a collaboratively-curated visual arts exhibition led by Harvey Milk Center for the Arts and Photo Center (HMCA), queer arts organization Diamond Wave, and LGBTQIA+ mental health service provider Queer LifeSpace (QLS).

Product & Care Info

Queerly Complex selected Next Level 3600 t-shirts because of the way they fit our bodies and feel upon our skin. They end just below the waist, have fitted sleeves, and the body is straight with seams running down both sides. They are perfect for all kinds & sizes of bodies. PLUS! They are pre-shrunk 100% combed ring-spun cotton, so they are soft to the touch and get softer with each wash. 

Some washing & care instructions: 

  • Turn t-shirt inside out. 
  • Machine wash cold on the gentle cycle with mild detergent and similar colors.
  • Do not use bleach. 
  • Do not use fabric softeners.
  • Tumble dry low, or hang-dry for longest life.
  • Cool iron inside-out if necessary. Do not iron decoration.
  • Do not dry clean.
    What is Queer Comfortwear

    We Queerdos deserve to feel comfortable and confident in our skin no matter our gender, sexuality, body size, disability, place of birth, family, race, or class. Queer Comfortwear is here to help us feel just that. With colorful designs that hold radical political messages, it is our armor as we go out into a world hostile towards Queerdos. It’s soft to the touch, bold on the eye, and hangs just a wee bit loose, which means it fits perfectly. When you put it on, you feel more at ease with who you are and able to say what you want, need, or desire to say. 

    Queerly Complex Queer Comfortwear will become your absolute favorite apparel any time you want to be you. And each pattern contains a coded message that only you (or other Queerdos) will know. So you can confidently wear your politics on your literal sleeve and stand up for justice wherever you are. 

    Why Made on Demand
    After looking into numerous production processes, Queerly Complex chose Print-on-Demand because it allows us to not be wasteful and still provide a range of products. We tried out a variety of options, and settled on Printful as the source of our Print-on-Demand merch because as a company they are the most reliable with the highest quality printing. That’s why Queerly Complex merch costs just a bit more and may take a bit longer to get to you. Each and every item is printed just for you.
