Gemma Rolls-Bentley hosts Dreaming of Home, a podcast series in conjunction with her group exhibition at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art. She is joined in the search for home by featured artists from the show and Leslie-Lohman Museum art workers as she explores queer people’s hope for a happy, healthy future, and the restrictions imposed by wider society on our dreams, our relationships, our families and our bodies. The series interviews some of today’s most groundbreaking artists as they reflect on the rapid and tumultuous shifts experienced by LGBTQIA+ communities from intergenerational and international perspectives, as we consider the themes of home on a global scale.

For many queer and trans people, family won’t involve children, but instead explores an array of nurturing intergenerational relationships and familial bonds that extend beyond the biological. But for others, having children is part of the journey and a key part of our home life. What do support networks look like for queer parents? Where can queer parents and kin find support? What do we hope to see these look like in the future?
Gemma Rolls-Bentley talks queer parenting with two Leslie-Lohman Museum staff: Head Curator, Stamatina Gregory and Director of External Affairs, Aimée Chan-Lindquist.
