SWEATMOTHER

Sweatmother UK/USA) is an artist and filmmaker based in London. His moving image work blends performance, self-recorded documentation, internet and archival materials to explore and make visible queer lived experiences. He seeks to create art for his community to share, learn from and find solace in sensitive depictions of their shared raw realities and obscured histories. He continues to develop his visual art practice alongside his collaborations and lived experiences, proposing new ways the world can interact with otherness. At Rupert, Sweat will experiment with “interventions against forgetting” within his archival project  Otherness Archive, an accessible online-based archive, that combines pioneering contemporary audiovisual works with their pre-existing counterparts, creating a space where past, present and future coexist in a joint mission of the work representative of the trans and queer experience.
