Abstract
This article demonstrates how Jonathan Lyndon Chase utilizes a range of abstract images of flowers, seeds and even a cowboy aesthetic to reimagine the relationship between nature and queer men of colour in the contemporary United States. Chase uses flowers and seeds as multifaceted symbols, carefully shaped, to evoke the fragile and yet revitalizing joys of a messy human growth. These allusions to growth, plant and human, offer a specific challenge to falsely naturalized, too curtailed conceptions of gender, sexuality and race in America.
