Surrealist artist Amie Pascal brings a queer lens to portraying and challenging representations of the body, blurring lines between reality and imagination while juxtaposing abject body horror with beauty. Her work expresses a universal rawness from a queer woman’s disabled embodiment in her new series ‘A Body Apart.’

Some of the things we discussed

  • 00:10:11 - How the pandemic and long COVID changed her art
  • 00:18:21 - The use of vintage anatomical illustrations as reference material and the reclamation of marginalized bodies
  • 00:20:56 - Inspiration from filmmakers and women surrealists
  • 00:27:03 - The "real world" as a liminal and surreal space
  • 00:33:07 - Music pairings for each painting
