Queer Space Winnipeg

FluxusMuseum Prize for Experimental Video will be exhibited between June  – September 2025 in The FluxusMuseum gallery. Selected works will also be uploaded to https://fluxusmuseum.org and shown on other FluxusMuseum platforms such as FMTV (FluxusMuseumTV)

I have been awarded the FluxusMuseum Prize for Experimental Video, where in the coming months I will be creating a new experiment video titled UTOPIA (an ode to the past, present and future) is a single channel video that contemplates the ways in which dance genres such as voguing, dancehall, house are not singular but are interwoven with one another.

Super excited to make new work video as it has already been one year since I made my first short!
