Wylder Ayres is a reparative resource mobilizer, birthworker, arts advocate, and multidisciplinary creative. In the words of esteemed non-binary poet, performance artist, and activist Alok Vaid-Menon: “The job of an artist is to replenish imagination. Is to say: there are ideas we haven’t considered yet. Feelings we haven’t encountered yet. Love we haven’t surrendered to yet. ‘Yet’ is the most wonderful word ever built. Let’s live there together. Redesign existence." I believe that public art is public health and am committed to building meaningful connections, projects, and partnerships across sectors towards collective liberation.
