Two of your favorite queer filmmakers – Celeste Chan and Irina Contreras – join forces to create a queer film mixtape from footage found in the GLBT archives. After spending months digging and unearthing the archival memory of queer life, Celeste and Irina have pieced together an extraordinary short film that traverses bars, protests, street life, activism and the underground world of queer culture. Join RADAR Productions and the GLBT Museum as these fabulous cinephiles present their queer film mixtape and discuss their process.
ARTISTS’ BIOGRAPHIES:
Celeste Chan is a queer artist, activist, writer, and filmmaker, schooled by DIY and immigrant parents from Malaysia and the Bronx, NY. Her films feature oral history interviews, cellophane, blow-up unicorns, a pearl-clutching fashion fetishist, lipstick as armor, images of disintegration, and direct animation. Her recent writing can be found in AWAY, cream city review’s genrequeer folio, and the Glitter & Grit Anthology.
Irina Contreras is an interdisciplinary artist and writer, whose individual and collaborative projects examine personal reflections of collective experiences. Her writing has appeared in the anthology Beyond Walls and Cages, which just received the Association of Borderlands President Gold Award for 2014. Join Radar Productions as they present their film and discuss their process!
