Reviews
"A feast for the eyes and mind, Queer Maximalism x Machine Dazzle is the exhibition book of the first solo museum show dedicated to the work of designer/performer Matthew Flower (aka Machine Dazzle), whose voluble costumes burst with energy and meaning. Photos of his go-big-or-go-home aesthetic are accompanied by expository material, including pieces from Mike Albo and Madison Moore and a Q+A with Mx Justin Vivian Bond." -AV CLUB
