- 8:00 pm
Where: Theatre
Artist Daze Jefferies and guest curator Emily Critch discuss Jefferies’ new major solo exhibition, stay here stay how stay.
Daze Jefferies, a white settler artist, writer, and educator, delves into oceanic narratives, crafting counter-narratives of queer, trans, and sex worker worlds. Through her creative pursuits, Jefferies skillfully employs a counter-historical approach to transfeminine belonging in Newfoundland and Labrador. Emily Critch, a Mi’kmaw and settler curator and writer, brings a rich curatorial background with projects such as "falling through our fingers" and "these are our monuments." Their discussion will spotlight their unique collaborative journey and Jefferies’ creative research practice.
