Scum is a Chi local hell-raiser, GNC activist and urban landscaper.

Multimedia works are loosely based on their experiences and traumas that come with , mental illness, and growing up without stable care facing ethnocentric monoculturalism. Their passion for art started as unknowingly coping with reality as a latinx child. Alienation from la Comunidad, city to city carved the false ideals that q***r youth should be cleansed or exists as the scum of the earth. After a q***r collective journey, the term was taken back and “Scum” empowers sinvergüenza (without shame).
