20 FLINTA artists (+a queer choir!) come together at SET Woolwich to bring you ‘The Queer Child’
The concept of ‘the Queer Child’ and ‘Growing Sideways’ derived from Katheryn Bond Stockton’s 20th century study on subliminal queerness in children. Stockton’s work explains how a queer child grows in non-linear paths towards non-conventional futures. The Queer Child is a space for FLINTA artists to exhibit the work of their inner queer child, platforming queer stories within an artistic and political climate which does not prioritise us.
Moving forwards, Growing Sideways Projects hope to form a valuable community of FLINTA creatives, engaging in continuous action and providing support for all queer artists.
Please come along to the Private View to mark the beginning of the Growing Sideways community!
Allies welcome 🙂
