Pillar of You
Kéïta Fournier-Pelletier
Pillar of You explores the pillars – or central building blocks of who we are, with a focus around queer relationships of all kinds and how our queerness intersects with our personal experiences from childhood to today.
Ojalá…
Sofía Ontiveros
Ojalá… explores how bodies connect, stumble upon interpersonal betrayals, and search for healing. Ojalá… dives into the uncertain risks taken in connections, with the hope it leads us to what we truly seek within.
Maybe we Land
Meghann Michalsky, Katherine Semchuk
Maybe we Land unveils the recurring cycles experienced inside of our relationships. Within the confines of a union, we balance fears of abandonment and vulnerable dependence with euphoric connection and unconditional support. Intimacy intertwines us; we fluctuate between resisting and surrendering to its binding nature.
