LCC Press Center
We are grown-ass lesbians who found ourselves longing for time and space with other queer women—for more of the magic that happens when you look around a room and feel an innate sense of belonging. The pulse-quickening excitement. We used to feel it at queer dance parties and lesbian bars, but those don’t quite hit the spot anymore. Instead of longing for it, we decided to create it.

Umico Niwa is about to do something to the installation. It’s already been up for three weeks, but that isn't stopping her. She’s been living above the gallery since then, close enough to hear it breathing, or at least to imagine she can. She may be leaving Portland soon, but that's just enough time.
She heads to the hardware store down the street for egg-yellow spray paint without removing her apron. While I await her return at ILY2, I step on a tomato. The seeds spit onto the hardwood floor atop a splotch of Klein blue spray paint. The scattered tomatoes are part of the work. Niwa’s prank on the viewer, taunting: you’re part of this too.
