Manage episode 373798717 series 3501264
In this episode Steph speaks with Cristine Brache, whose practice spanning sculpture, poetry and video concerns issues of cultural erasure, and the survival of identity in oppressive environments through codified behaviors.
Currently living between Toronto and Miami, Cristine often draws on personal experience as an American born queer woman of Puerto Rican and Cuban descent, and the colonial and patriarchal conditions these things imply. Her current exhibition—‘Commit Me, Commit to Me’—at New York's Fierman Gallery explores the work of woman surrealists of the early 20th century and the ongoing culture of gaslighting these lost histories reveal more broadly.
