Jay Allegretti

I am a nonbinary artist focused on using my platform to share underrepresented transgender and nonbinary voices. I connect humans to the natural world by linking queer identities and plant life. I paint murals supplemented with installation art, transforming white-cube galleries into new environments. I am most interested in how social practice can use art to address community needs. I host the Queer Clothing Trade, a traveling program that provides recycles clothing to trans and nonbinary people that need support acquiring clothing that better represents one’s gender identity.
