Alexis Bulman will present a short talk addressing the research undertaken during her Interrogating Access Residency.
During this residency, Alexis Bulman decided to apply the knowledge gained from the different workshops, webinars and independent research into the creation of two new bodies of work: Remodel, a series of five drywall sculptures, and Tending To, a video performance. The former invites audiences to imagine the structures and systems that we tend to see as immovable as flexible, while the latter demonstrates the role of tenderness in care and consideration. From concept to presentation, both works were developed with accessibility as forethought as opposed to an afterthought.
Following the presentation there will be a Q&A moderated by Tamar Tembeck (OBORO) and Dan Ten Veen (Spectrum Productions). The public is invited to interact with the speaker, but anyone simply wishing to attend is welcome.
This presentation is part of Interrogating Access, a series of talks and workshops on accessibility in art and media production, jointly developed by OBORO and Spectrum Productions, and benefiting from the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
