Queers in Carhartts - Film Screening and Exhibition//Artist & Researcher Q&A
Queers in Carhartts is an art exhibition, film screening, and research launch, documenting the unique challenges and practices of resilience by queer and trans people working in skilled trades labour.
QiC is a hybrid of qualitative research investigating the lived experiences of 2SLGBTQ+ people in skilled trades in Nova Scotia, and a collaborative, community-building, creative documentation of the first-person authority of some of those experiences and survival strategies. Community collaborations feature local artist Andrew Deveaux for filmography, Winnipeg musician and sound artist, Kitz Willman on sound, and sculptor-researcher (carpenter), Devin West on research and artistic direction.
Join us in launching our exhibition, film screening, and research report.
