Brandt Eisner - Splitt: The Art of Drag Exhibition

 

"We're all born naked and the rest is drag"

-RuPaul.

 

"Splitt: The Art of Drag" presents the wearable art which helps create The Ice House Gallery's curator, visual artist, and former Talent Trust recipient, Brandt Eisner's drag performance characters “Lickity Splitt” and “Persnickety Splitt.”

 

Not just for fun and entertainment, drag challenges the constructs of gender and societal norms. Drag is a political act which reminds us that however we present ourselves to the world it's not always who we are but a role we play.

 

Opening reception: September 4 between 1:00-2:30pm
Exhibition continues until October 3, 2021.

The Ice House Gallery
