Description
xA meditation on southwestern terrains, intergenerational queer dynamics, and surveilled brown artists that crosses physical and conceptual borders.
Part butch memoir, part ekphrastic travel diary, part queer family tree, Raquel Guti馥acute;rrez's debut essay collection, Brown Neon, gleans insight from the sediment of land and relationships. For Guti駻rez, terrain is essential to understanding that no story, no matter how personal, is separate from the space where it unfolds. Whether contemplating the value of adobe as both vernacular architecture and commodified art object, highlighting the feminist wounding and transphobic apparitions haunting the multigenerational lesbian social fabric, or recalling a failed romance, Guti駻rez traverses complex questions of gender, class, identity, and citizenship with curiosity and nuance.
