Gender bend, gender blend - Oh ! Have we got trouble!
gender/TROUBLING
Curated by Pam Patterson with Serena Lee
Co-sponsored by Women in Action (CWSE/OISE/UT), XPACE Cultural Centre, and the AGO Youth Council (presenting ShiftChange) with Toronto video, film, and new media artists Loree Erickson, Spy Dénommé-Welch, Jo SiMalaya Alcampo, Alexandra Hazisavvas, fibre artist, Frances Mahon, with a performance by Claudia Wittmann.
Gender bend, gender blend - Oh ! Have we got trouble! The fun, sexxy, hot, meets “voguing” - What a “drag”! Get rid of those binaries! Engage with life-sized on the wall grls/gys and video & film by native-tranny-poly-queer-gimp-homo-gender-b(l)enders. “Perform” (or critique) a new persona at the gallery site, see a performance and a portable gender-abled potty, and workshop, in conversation, with the artists on site. Play with where you stand (or pass?) ...anything is dizzyingly possible.
