On December 7th, Bloomsburg University Alumni, Marcy Geyer gave a very thought provoking talk of her art work having to do with the LGBT community. Being active in LGBT rights, the presentation was very inspirational. Not only did she talk about the discrimination of people's sexualities but she also mentioned the discrimination against races. Her opinion on discrimination was very bold in all of her work.
Her work was very interesting to look at. While watching the slide show we were able to enjoy her progression as an artist and through the years her works have morphed into pieces that can easily get messages through to the audience. My favorite thing that Geyer walked about was her pillows and how she left them around in places, even in the MoMA. The subtly of this work was creative because discrimination is not always in your face. It was definitely a creative way to spread awareness. Overall, I enjoyed Marcy Geyer's talk and looking at the works of art she had produced over the years.
