Sunny Allis works intuitively and with embodied physicality to create works that convey a heightened
state of aliveness, spontaneity, and play. They explore transformation as a generative
state of creation, and celebrate the queer/trans body as expansive, dynamic and limitless.
Many of Sunny’s projects focus on community and connection through different mediums
of storytelling. Sunny released a gender-inclusive, bilingual children’s book called
Hooray, What A Day!/¡Viva, Qué Día! They are currently developing a multimedia, inclusive kids TV show called All Together Now! Sunny is also a current MAC Artist in Residence.
This event will include a screening of the proof of concept All Together Now! followed by a talk and a Q&A opportunity. General topics of discussion will cover
the transformative power of art. Sunny utilizes specific techniques and folds into
their practice intentional world building, one that is inclusive and equitable. They
