Queer Australian Art and KINK acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the traditional owners and custodians of the lands and waters of this continent. KINK conducts its work on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation in Naarm Melbourne, the Turrbal and Jagera peoples in Meanjin Brisbane and the Gadigal lands of the Eora Nation, Sydney. We pay respect to elders past, present, and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Description

This project transforms the live moment between artist and participant into 95 hand-painted posters about feminism. Each slogan is translated from 16 lessons the artist received on feminism as part of The Learning Centre: Two Feminists 2012) live performance. The thoughts, ideas and facts passed on through these conversations are collated to create a hobbled archive of feminist thought, predictions and histories, whilst riffing off the tropes and clichés of the political poster and slogan. - Kelly Doley
