January – February
3rd Floor Studio, YMCA, Swansea
The Glynn Vivian Art Gallery ‘Artist in Residence’ programme is an opportunity for the community to interact, exchange and engage with an artist and to offer artists an opportunity for reflection, research and collaboration.
Joan has been working as an independent DIY cultural practitioner for over a decade. With roots based in the London queer punk scene (performing solo as Truly Kaput and in bands such as the Battys and Gender Fascist) Joan now works in a variety of mediums, including song, live performance and zine distribution. Joan’s work is about turning embodied queer experience – often painful – into narratives or what they like to think of as “folk stories.”
As a genderqueer person and artist, Joan is currently exploring gender neutral pronoun such as ‘their’ and ‘them’ in reference to themselves.
