About the artist
Leila Weefur (He/They/She) is an artist, writer, and curator based in Oakland, CA. Through film & installation they examine the performative elements connected to systems of belonging, present in Black, queer, gender-variant life. An entanglement of beauty and horror evokes concepts of sensorial memory, architectural psychology, hyper surveillance, and the erotic.
