FAiR Showcase | Friday May 29, 4-7pm | Sun Wah Centre at 268 Keefer St - Room 400 With @soft.kaur Future Arts Network presents Divya Kaur: Join Divya Kaur for a casual art showcase and talk from 5-6pm, in reflection of the experimental process to their work carried out throughout their Future Arts Network residency. Largely trialing cameraless photography, medical imaging, and analogue mediums, the artist's work explores their relationship to disability, with a primary focus on the fragility, unpredictability, and objectification of the body. Divya Kaur is a queer disabled Punjabi interdisciplinary artist, writer, community builder, and anti-oppression professional living on stolen Coast Salish territories, including those of the Halkomelem-speaking peoples. Their work spans mediums and focuses largely on lens-based arts to explore themes of identity, trauma, queerness, disability, pain, and healing, seeking to honor the intersections and tender complexities within these experiences. Divya's work has been featured in 5X Press, Room Magazine, SAD Mag, Cold Tea Collective, Vines Art Society, Kickstart Disability, Enabling Arts, and Vancouver Pride Magazine. They organize with Under The Table Poetry and is the co-creator of HIR, a community-driven South Asian LGBTQIA+ zine.
