::: Performances :::
SALACIOUS: Silver Door, Montreal October 21
I am experimenting with a new piece called “Present” where I will be doing interactive one on one breathing with audience members. Also performing on this night are: performance artists Shayo, Jordan Arsenault, and the ever amazing Johnny Forever
Here is the card I gave to people after they breathed with me:
November ▼ MIX NYC ▼
I will be performing The Insiders with 16 members of my New York queer community. Here is my page in the MIX catalogue.
My work will be showing during a furries installation at MIX in a piece curated by Melanie Rainbow! Here is a still from that film, Hum(animals)
And also I will be screening my new video work Lesbian Hand Gestures twice on Saturday November 19 which is a new video for Lesbians on Ectasy. I was able to make this work with the generosity of Bildwechsel, Villa Magdalena and Canada Council for the Arts. Here is a still from my new video work I made last year in Berlin with help from Mascha Niels and Meagan Castle.
December
I am super excited to be doing the Hammock Residency which is run by the magical Heidi Nagtegaal. I will be performing a new work entitled SINGLE MOM VIRGIN MARY at the corner of West Georgia and Granville for the last four Saturday afternoons in December. This piece calls attention to the status of single mothers who are almost all living below the poverty line due to the many budget cuts in their social programs. Single mothers are also more apt to suffer from stigmatization, discrimination and abuse/ violence.
In December I am also in this beautiful photo show: Nice to Meet You. It is by my go-to photographer and web site designer. If you are interested in any photo work in Montréal or website work anywhere contact her! Tif Flowers -she is a delight to work with.
January and February
I start my artist residency at Tennis Court in Brooklyn working on new video and performance work. I am pleased to be supported by Petit Versailles/ Material for the Arts.
