Trans Art and Activism: How do we shape the world?
Hastings Queer History Collective members Victoria Oldman and Serge Nicholson are joined by artists Emma Frankland and Bambi Jordan Phillips.
Together they will reflect on how today’s social and cultural climate affects the creation and reception of trans artists’ work, and share their visions for the future of trans culture – playful, radical, DIY, or even a little dystopian.
Trans-ignited culture… this revolution will not be televised.
The panel will discuss ways trans creativity continues to shape the world. It draws on Gil Scott-Heron’s 1970 phrase, “The revolution will not be televised,” a reminder that true cultural change is often grassroots-driven and underreported – a concept that resonates today in the age of social media and online propaganda.
Hastings Museum & Art Gallery Bohemia Road, Hastings, TN34 1ET
