Join us for a very special evening with two of our favorite Canadians when the always-inspiring Deirdre Logue and Allyson Mitchell show/share/ discuss their individual and collective practices which span film, video, installation, drawing, music, performance and activism. Using performance for the camera as a primary mode of production, Logue’s self-portraits investigate what it means to be a queer body in the age of anxiety. Through the use of reclaimed textile and abandoned craft, Mitchell explores contemporary ideas about sexuality, autobiography, and the body. http://deirdrelogue.com/ http://www.allysonmitchell.com ARTISTS IN ATTENDANCE!

"Although I started in this world as an editor thinking of learning visual effects, I unexpectedly fell in love with 35mm analog photography, and little by little I met the world of super 8 and 16mm, so I immediately started experimenting with the grain, the scratches and the infinite possibilities the analog world has to offer."
