Melissa Grace Kreider with Lenscratch

We love seeing what our midwest nice artists are up to! We’re excited to share that Melissa Grace Kreider’s series i will bite the hand that feeds was featured on LENSCRATCH ✨ Melissa was featured in our nice;01 exhibition.

Melissa says about i will bite the hand that feeds:

i will bite the hand that feeds is created in response to navigating rage, misogyny, queer womanhood, and questions if capitalism and patriarchy will crush us.

i will bite the hand that feeds is a manifestation of the dots i’ve been connecting between my lived experiences as a survivor of sexual assault, workplace culture, those that allow me to photograph them, the concept of “justice” in the united states, punishment, power and those who wield it, and how pop culture and media handling on topics of assault affects us on a global scale as well as every facet of our lives.
