Katy Batsel is a dreamer wielding needle and thread to imagine a better world for herself and her queer community. As a member of the like-minded Secret Love Collective, she encourages the disenfranchised to step out of their world, try on identities and find new ways to live life. But her fiber works on their own can still be big and funny, cheeky, heavy with subtle memories and loud with slogans, ready for a parade, and evidence of a massive imagination.
What fires Batsel’s message? The artist tells all as she answers the Colorado Creatives questionnaire.
Westword: What (or who) is your creative muse?
