Join us on Saturday, May 31st from 7 to 9pm for Creighton Baxter's artist presentation, "dreams or doors". Creighton will be presenting nearly fifty works on paper that she created during her three-week BOFFO residency on Fire Island. The event will be held at 547 Beachcomber Walk, the iconic house from "Boys in the Sand", and end with a performance at 8:30pm. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the work of a singular artist in one of Fire Island Pines' most storied homes.

Through an interdisciplinary practice rooted in drawing and performance, Creighton Baxter (b. 1990 Arizona, USA) transforms images and gestures through repetition. Her iterative bodies of work explore themes of temporality, remembrance, and the sensorium as they relate to transfeminine subjectivity. She has performed atThe Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, Poetry Project, and MoMA; and participated in exhibitions at Andrew Kreps Gallery, David Castillo, and Allen Memorial Art Museum amongst others. Baxter has contributed illustrations to The Yale Review and Duke University Press, and produced writing for Et al Projects, JB Blunk Estate, and Telematic Media Arts. Baxter received her BFA from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts and her MFA from Yale University. She currently lives and works in Brooklyn.
