HAZEL MEYER
Hazel Meyer is an artist who works with installation, performance, and text to investigate the relationships between sexuality, feminism, and material culture. Her work aims to recover the queer aesthetics, politics, and bodies often effaced within histories of infrastructure, athletics and illness.
Scaffold, banners and hand-painted serif-fonts are a few of Hazel’s favourite tools and motifs. With them, alongside a commitment to movement and intimacy, she asks whether together we can enliven and re-centre the importance of desire, queerness, and sweat (between bodies) in this political moment. Recent activations of this question have taken place at La Ferme du Buisson, spring 2019 (FR), Glasgow International Art Biennial, spring 2018 (SCT), Art Gallery of Windsor, winter 2019 (CA), MAI (Montréal, arts interculturels), summer 2019 (QC), Progress Festival, winter 2020 (CA), and at the Porn Film Festival Berlin, fall 2019 (DE).
