Lane Speidel on Fantasy, Empathy and Curating Trans Performance
By Imani RoachSeptember 29, 2017
Artblog’s Imani Roach spoke with artist Lane Speidel about their experiences as an early childhood educator and curator of Make A Space For Me, a performance series for trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming artists, makers, thinkers and audiences. In their own artistic practice, Lane uses performance to re-establishing control over their body in the face of personal trauma and the daily demands of life under capitalism. Across all platforms of their work, safety is a paramount concern— proper grammar, less so. Find out why! Imani interviewed Lane at Moore College of Art and Design's TGMR radio station on Sept. 21st, 2017; the podcast is 50 minutes long.
