SUMMARY:Exhibition: Phreaking Gender
DESCRIPTION:Listen to this Event Page\n  \nPHREAKING GENDER expands the themes of Nicole O’Reilly’s titular documentary into an installation art show. O’Reilly teams up with Luke ‘Luca’ Cockayne to create a space for all to explore their relationship to gender and the ways that art can support and enhance The Transgender Experience™.  In the face of oppressive paternalistic medical systems that deny trans people bodily autonomy\, and at a time when our very existence is threatened\, PHREAKING GENDER provides a techno-anarchist manifesto\, showing that self-augmentation and the creation of radical queer communities is not just a necessity for wellbeing\, but as an act of empowerment and rebellion in itself. Work by Nicole O’Reilly & Luke ‘Luca’ Cockayne. \nThis exhibition is open from 3-9pm on 26th\, 27th and 28th September at the Creative Lab in CCA\, Glasgow \nThis exhibition is FREE. \n  \nACCESSIBLITY  \nContent Warnings: \n\nDiscussion of gender dysphoria\, suicide\, familial abuse;\nDepiction of nudity\, needles\, kinky activities\, sexual content\, drug use\, transphobia\, body fluids.\n\nThis exhibition has strobing lighting. \nThis installation has an age recommendation of N/C 18+. \nEnglish audio with English language captions.  \nWe have an Audience Access Fund for travel.
