Chelsey Luster is a Philadelphia-based curator, educator, and visual artist with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Tyler School of Art and Architecture. Luster's work explores the complexities of safe spaces within Queer and Black culture through mixed media paintings and installations. By combining oil and fluorescent acrylic paints, fabric, and other materials, she creates imaginative havens and gives her models agency over their images while providing a supportive environment for vulnerability and self-reflection. Luster's involvement with other Philadelphia galleries and art spaces helps to reshape the power dynamics between curators and artists to build a care-centered community.
