In the opera ‘Faeded,’ Maxi Glamour demonstrates the many ways queerness exists in art

Multidisciplinary artist Maxi Glamour has shared their storytelling prowess through songwriting, drag and queer-friendly events by way of their Faeded series. Recently, they have completed “Faeded: The Opera” which premieres June 5 at the Contemporary Art Museum in partnership with the Pulitzer Arts Foundation. Glamour gives us a peek into their motivations to write their first opera, the evolution of Faeded over the years and their take on how “queerness” transcends sexual orientation.
