Label TextMillie Wilson focuses on surrealism and minimalism to create works that, she says, tell “a secret history of modernity informed by queer sexuality, femininity, race and class.” She uses these multiple forms of identity in her work by using parody, symbolism, and humor. Her multi-media work explores provoking, disturbing, and humorous connections between historical art styles and cultural stereotypes about the body, desire, identity, and pathology.
