This week on GRAFIK CONTENT, I chat with interdisciplinary artist, writer, curator, and Co-Founder of Off-Centre, Luke Maddaford. We chat about why, as a queer creative, he decided to move to one of the most rural areas of Canada, his upcoming show at the Remai Modern, what modern-day hatefests are doing to society, queerness in relation to place, the speculative history of bathhouses and what it's like being the only f** at the party.
🎧 Tune in for:
✔️ Cross-country cat-in-car traveling tips
✔️ Cultural crossroads of Canadian culture
✔️ Shifting from personal practice to municipal work
✔️ Divisiveness as a means to profit off humans
✔️ How his art has made its way around the world
✔️ Reminiscing on the epic FRUIT BASKET Pride Party
✔️ Why not everything needs to be good
✔️ If no one's doing it, make sure to do it yourself
✔️ Being silly while taking yourself seriously as an artist
