Endless Revisions
Montreal, Quebec, 2013
Endless Revisions is the video-response to an artist project that was born in the class Queer Partners in Art and Art Making. It is paired with a Zine that outlines my experience and musingings born in the experience.
"Partaking in this class I see Queer ideology and community as an opening, a hole-whole encompassing all that has been and has yet to be. The deconstruction of defined hegemonic structures that collapse in the breathy, beautiful exchange of honest human interaction."
"How can you separate your life from the black-matter-interwoven-tapestry of the people that you know? Those shy faces that fearlessly summon sweet thoughts and chaotic cross-sections, sparks, inspiration, validation
Of being."
"Unlike other heteronormative structures, Queer-ness responds to this movement. Recognizing the un-fixed state of history, identity and life itself."
