Film Screening and Exhibition//Artist & Researcher Q&AQueers in Carhartts is an art exhibition, film screening, and research launch, documenting the unique challenges and practices of resilience by queer and trans people working in skilled trades labour. QiC is a hybrid of qualitative research investigating the lived experiences of 2SLGBTQ+ people in skilled trades in Nova Scotia, and a collaborative, community-building, creative documentation of the first-person authority of some of those experiences and survival strategies. Community collaborations feature local artist Andrew Deveaux for filmography, Winnipeg musician and sound artist, Kitz Willman on sound, and sculptor-researcher (carpenter), Devin West on research and artistic direction. Join us in launching our exhibition, film screening and research report at Queers in Carhartts.
Research and art facilitated by YWCA Halifax Shift Change Project @shiftchangehalifax, funded by Women and Gender Equity Canada. Thank you to our supporters: WAGE Canada, Wisdom2Action, WiSTAN and Titiklie Workplace Safety.
