Baltimore Sideshow

By Katherine Cottle

ComeCome Inside...

. . . to see a visual and literary sideshow, featuring the creative "side" shows of five of Baltimore's most notable and unique 20th century residents-Johnny Eck, Blaze Starr, Divine, Axl Rotten, and Henrietta Lacks.

Here you will find imaginative illustrated reinterpretations of the historical figures' original works in screen painting, custom jewelry, musical tracks, social media posts, and transport, presented alongside a

range of captivating poetry forms.

Together, these two artistic mediums merge to tell their own stories-highlighting the roles of disability, sexuality, gender, addiction, violence, and race in past and present exhibitionism.
