โโฆconsider how the arts and contemporary theory structure โthe commonsโ anew: how the commons becomes both a goal and a trope in post-millennial art and cultural theory.โ (Amy J. Elias)
The understanding of art as a common has broader significance when we begin to look at what happens when an artistโs creativity is expressedโwhen we make or do something with our creative energy. While we each may experience any given artwork differently, art is part of the glue that connects us. Our differing interpretations and experiences of art resonate throughout the commons. The commons is a process, and it is in flux.
Eric Kandel, a Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist who studies memory and how it works, has said, โIt took us a year to realize what should have been obvious from the start: the cellular mechanics of learning and memory reside not in the special properties of the neuron itself, but in theย connectionsย it receives and makes with other cells in the neuronal circuit to which it belongs.โhttps://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/2000/kandel/facts/
The word queer first appeared in the special issue of “Lesbian and Gay Sex” in “Difference” magazine published by feminist Teresa Lolidis.
De Lauretis suggests that the threefold critique she imagines might be drawn together under the rubric of queer theory making it possible “to recast or reinvent the terms of our sexualities, to construct another discursive horizon, another way of thinking the sexual” (de Lauretis, p. iv).

She still hopes to use it to replace the references to lesbians and gays, and to understand the multiplicity of sexuality in the history, material, and context of their respective experiences.
Although queer theory has been put forward since the 1980s and has been developed in combination with history, culture, philosophy, and literature, it has not been applied deeply and extensively in the field of literary creation and research. Therefore, the combination of queer theory and queer writing, while the theory guides and promotes the creation of literary criticism, is also conducive to the acceptance of queer theory and queer phenomenon by people from all walks of life in society, especially heterosexual hegemons
Claude Cahun, 
one of the notable artists in Queer.http://www.artnet.com/artists/claude-cahun/2
All of her works revolve around gender and sexual orientation. Dare to make such content in that era is undoubtedly a heavy hammer to society. In addition to revealing the status of LGBTQIA people to the public, her works also aim to allow the public to accept this new pattern of interpersonal relationships and a new way of life as a non-traditional artistic challenge. Indeed, without pioneers like Claude Cahun daring to stand up, it would be difficult to inspire Heather Glazzard’s idea of โโusing a camera to record real group portraits of LGBTQIA people.
In the exploration of this art field, I mainly used methodology and data collection methods. It includes the collection and arrangement of data to reflect the population size distribution. Including the attitudes of different occupations, different groups, and different age groups towards queer comments. The process of collecting and organizing can more intuitively show the Chinese people’s misunderstanding of queer.
In China, marriage/family is a particularly important component of society, and only heterosexuals have the sole right to belong to marriage/family.
Queer theory implements the construction from practice to theory and then feedback and practice. At the same time, it also emphasizes a flow and a deconstruction of power discourse, which confuses the existing boundaries between genders. But this charming ambiguity is not a kind of chaos. On the contrary, as an umbrella term, it emphasizes the deconstruction of intersubjectivity, so that gender/gender can be regarded as a real whole to seize further rights. At present, a well-known LGBT+ community in China, “Queer as Folk”, has taken its English name “Queer as folk”; Beijing Queer Film Festival has changed its name several times over the years, from the original China homosexual Film Festival, Beijing Gay&Lesbian Film Festival and Beijing Queer Film Forum were finally named Beijing Queer Film Festival. The use of the word Queer in the Chinese context has hardly encountered any resistance, and its degree of destigmatization can be seen.
Queer’s theory expresses a political ideal of full “gender cooperation”, and equal participation of men and women, it refuses to be labeled, appreciates the fluidity of sexual expression, and reveals the deep structure of the entire society and its operating mechanism. So the possibility of being queer is very high.
For example, in the fashion industry, Indya Moore is an American transgender actress and model, and she is also the first transgender person to be featured in the American ELLE magazine. Michael Kors has released a cotton T-shirt with a rainbow embroidered pattern, and 100% of the proceeds of this product will be donated to non-profit organizations.ย https://www.nylon.com/fashion/rickey-thompson-is-the-face-of-coach-we-c-you-campaign-for-prideCoach even invited Rickey Thompson, Kim Petras, Bob the Drag Queen and other stars to shoot a montage-style video: “What makes you feel seen by the world? The cooperation between these queer and fashion brands is undoubtedly to express that no matter what you are Regardless of your appearance or sexual orientation, you must have the courage to discover and demonstrate your value to be recognized.
Queer’s theory essentially reflects a process of “decentralization” of postmodern identities. Excessive pursuit of such dispersion and mobility may cause society to overemphasize individual needs and create a series of new problems. In China, the queer form is difficult to promote under Chinese politics (for example, holding some activities and publishing-related speeches and articles will be restricted), let alone access relevant materials for in-depth research.
In many works of art, people can read the meaning of other senses from the visual language. When vision and other senses are integrated and interlaced, they will present people with dual or multiple sensory stimulation from vision to other sensory perceptions, which will strengthen people’s senses and realize the conversion and combination of vision and other senses.
As listeners, we brought that connection into our interactions with Calton Hill. We strive to listen to Calton Hill in this way.
