Invasive is an art project that proudly reclaims kudzu, an invasive plant species, as a symbol for Southern queer visibility and tenacity in the face of stereotypes that obscure our rich histories. Started by artist Aaron McIntosh, Invasive is traveling across the Southern states from 2015-2017 to gather stories of LGBTQ people through community workshops and from special archives, turning these stories into a mass of quilted kudzu leaves to exhibit around the country. Invasive will take over multiple venues in Houston October 16-18, 2016.
