Serving to ignite a specific meditation on the semiotics of the verb ‘to queer’, this video intends to lean into my interest in imagining and transcribing the complex intersectional positionality of queer persons within the landscape of Seattle, Washington. Queering (2017) is a video work postulating a re-thinking of ontology, re-imagining the interconnectedness of objects and the “self” as inherently queer and attempts to localize this notion within a counter-hegemonic practice of “calling out” or “speaking to the real". Utilizing free-form speech recordings, ambient sounds captured during filming, and my particular collaging and remixing of video’s, this piece intends to put the viewer in a state of relaxed contemplation. An opening, or negation, creating space for potentiality.
