Polydisciplinary artist and shapeshifter Antonius-Tín Bui (buimonster) is invested in the transformative potential of improvisation, portraiture, craft, and ritual. Bui explores themes of eroticism, honoring ancestors and traditions, finding joy and potential in breaking, glitching, and illegibility and rebuilding from a fractured tongue/culture. 

On the occasion of expochicago April 11-14, For Freedoms commissioned signed, numbered, and hand-embellished limited edition cyanotype prints by Bui. "Time is now inside me, transfer and possession, never holding anything back, indifferent to my illegitimacy, disinterested in my grief, pierced with all of my joy. Inside me, a second, better person, furnished with perfect recall- my convict, my warden, my guest, my host" (2024) will be on display in the fair's /Dialogues lounge alongside works by other moniquemeloche artists candida_alvarez_studio shiniquesmith, and jake_troyli, amplifying the necessity and power of creativity in shaping inclusive civic discourse. Bui has embellished 5 prints in the edition with hand-cut elements, different paint washes, and gold leaf, making each unique. 

Proceeds from print sales benefit the artist and For Freedoms. Tap to purchase or visit shop.forfreedoms.org
