The Rainbow Filter

June 4th – July 4th, 2021


Curated by David Gorman

The Royal @ RSOAA is pleased to present The Rainbow Filter, a group exhibition featuring artists John Paradiso, Tom Hill and Morgan Boecher.

Since the Stonewall Riots of 1969, June often commemorates the recognition and reflection of the LGBTQIA+ experience. While this presence and impact on social institutions have existed throughout human existence, Pride Month gives open space to contemplate the notions of sexuality and desire, relationships, gender identity and almost every dimension of humanity.

The Rainbow Filter at RSOAA’s The Royal opens the door to every LGBTQIA+ self-definition through art, as well as the creativity of non-LGBTQIA+ people who see and experience their narratives.
