Lougheed House - Roar: Exploring Queer History and Gender Identity
Lougheed House
Roar: Exploring Queer History and Gender Identity 2019
In 2019 I had the opportunity to work with Lougheed House, a national historic site in Calgary, in documenting and promoting two special exhibits and a variety of events as a part of Roar: Exploring Queer History and Gender Identity, a festival collaboration with Lougheed House, Big Kitty Crew, Calgary Queer Arts Society and Calgary Pride. I had a great time working with Lougheed House to create the two videos featured below.
Nine Lives: Changing Notions of Femininity Through Time
For this first promotional video, I was invited to Lougheed House to capture video of a photoshoot with members of Big Kitty Crew, an all-female arts collective, in addition to four Calgary drag performers to promote the Nine Lives exhibit, which featured photographs from the photoshoot.
