EXHIBIT


Life Is Drag: More Is Better and Never Too Much // @ 3S Artspace*
now – Sun JUN 27

Free and open to the public during gallery hours. You can also reserve a private gallery visit on Saturdays and Sundays for groups up to 10.


Note: Exhibit contains partial nudity and gratuitous use of tassels. Viewer discretion is advised.


"During her two-week residency at 3S Artspace in 2020, Rachel Rampleman filmed and interviewed 21 New England drag artists. Their stories and performances, told through Rampleman’s unique artistic lens, were due to premier in person last spring. However, the pandemic required adaptation and we shared the first preview of Life is Drag in a virtual format. While living in New York over the past year, Rachel was able to meet with drag and burlesque “royalty” and add to her portfolio during a singular moment in history. Expanded and fully realized, Life is Drag: More is Better and Never Too Much is not to be missed!"
