Elizabeth "Oscar" Maynard is a queer southern butch boi, from Georgia's

nearest northern neighbor, South Carolina. She is a free lance activist and artist

and happy to be back in Atlanta after an almost year long stint on an organic farm

overseas. She attended Antioch College and majored in Art/Psych/Gender Studies. She

has been a stencil artist for the last four years; her artistic background is in drawing,

painting and photo. He is working on a project titled Femme Agency which looks at the way queer Femme women reclaim and complicate femininity. She is invested in social justice

movements, accountability and direct communication. Conceptually, he is drawn to mapping narrative onto place, bodies, and cultural iconography. Narrative resonates with him,

because she is rooted in a Southern US cultural tradition of story-telling. She is

eager to do work that ties history to location, and restores meaning to words or

mages that have evolved beyond their historical context or original meaning.
