Queering the Ghost

Queering the Ghost[expand trigpos="below"]19th July-29th JulyA collective group show reimagining/reclaiming queer memories.Derived from a conversation between friends that spanned queer kinship, queer love,censorship and the complexities of placing the queered individual within a temporalspace, ‘Queering The Ghost,’ is an opening for desire and play to interlink/fester. Weinvite you to enter this space to contemplate the perspective of a lost lover, mourn theconsequences of late stage capitalism on the body, and explore hidden histories of thepast. Is the ghost an absence of meaningful connections in a hyper-individualised,hyper-independent, and commodified world? When corporate interests bleed into ourmost intimate spaces, turning our Pride into PR events for corporations, corrupting ourcalls to protest, where can we turn but to each other (or behind our shoulders as we exitthe underworld?) In an era where we are turned into nonverbal, obedienthuman-machines, we all become the ghosts.We invite you to honour, and remember the lived experiences of our queer ancestors, aswell as reclaim and reimagine histories that excluded queer narratives.Preview date time: July 19th 6-9pmOpening times: 12-6pmLewisham Art House140 Lewisham WaySE14 6PD, London[/expand]
