Split + Growing is a new, highly personal exhibit of work from transfeminist
painter and illustrator Ketch Wehr. Primarily illustrative gouache paintings,
Wehr's show explores his personal understanding of his gender and queerness
from an early age through the lens of synesthesia.
Synesthesia is a condition which, in his case, lends colors and flavors
to all letters and words.
Split + Growing is the visual display of an evolving queer selfhood
through the colors Wehr knew to be part of his identity
before he had the words to describe it.
