My work as an artist, activist, and academic reflects|refracts my experiences as a white neuroqueer trans woman and dyke. It exists at the intersection of queer and trans theory, history, and practice; community-engaged direct action; and art making as both a form of self- and community-care, and as a means to document and archive people, actions, movements, and joy. Through all my work I strive first and foremost to document—with an aspiration towards archiving—my experiences, my body, my lovers, and my community.
Cat Haines will be taking over the Instagram account between June 22nd - 26th.
Ell Bird is a 2Spirit writer and artist residing on Treaty 4 territory in Moose Jaw. Ell's poetry aims to articulate the feeling of being face to face with injustice from the perspective of an intersected minority. Visceral images and raw emotion communicate the process of moving through suffering and lament towards hope. To balance out these heavy mediations, Ell finds joy in crafting, reading, and spending time with loved ones.
