From a veteran Latinx performance artist to an Instagram phenom, a nonbinary lettering whiz to a visionary from Uganda, these LGBTQ artists are mastering their mediums.
Nao Bustamante has been showing her performance art, sculpture, installation and video work across the globe for more than 25 years, and she still loves the rush of being in production, in a studio or in a performance. “I'm always making,” she said. “The trick is to find space in your mind to allow for ideas to unfold, and there's a lot of procrastination involved. I always say, 'If you’re not procrastinating, you haven’t started yet.
'” Known for her bold explorations of race, class and gender, Bustamante said she doesn't so much make art for the LGBTQ community, but that the community holds and supports her so that she's able to make her art . She remains motivated to build a more just and loving world, and more reflective of her own lived experience. “I stand at the intersection of many communities: queer, feminist, Latinx, artist and educator,” she said. “I live all those identities at the same time.
