Live in the space, Wednesday Lupypciw will be performing a response to Kirsten McCrea's "Hot Topic" series, which in itself is an ode to pop/queer / feminist icons La Tigre, by investigating the idea of how we interpret feminism(s) in modern-day fashion. Watch. Drink. Discuss.
As Lupypciw puts it: she has never been “a really good Type A crafter.” Instead she chooses to maintain a concurrent practice in textiles --weaving, machine knitting, embroidery and crochet -- and will also work in ephemeral forms such as workshops, edition-of-one videos, posters, improvised crafts and performances. “I am wary of exact and unmovable models of display and encourage viewers of my work to take charge of the means of cultural production,” says Lupypciw. “I operate according to the principles of queer politics and obsess over the resurgent DIY movement, so the aesthetic of my output is firmly planted within contemporary radical craft contexts.”
