CTM 2022 Exhibition:
The exhibition provides a look into various aspects of working collaboratively in pandemic times.
The works are the result of artistic exchanges across distances. Taken together, they point to potentials, effects, successes, and pitfalls of telematically mediated contact and encounters. How can connections, artistic exchange, and mutual understanding be developed and nurtured when physical togetherness is not possible?
The Exhibition in clouds the 6 part series, Jump Cut , curated by Dana Gingras/Animals of Distinction.
Jump Cut #3 by Austin Young will play online at 6pm on February 3, 2022.

Jump Cut #3 (aka ‘Them’) is created by Austin Young and is the third installment of the six episode series of commissioned video artworks by Animals of Distinction. This short experimental film exploits transformative performance artists and drag stars Willam Belli, Laganja Estranja and Alaska Thunderfuck in a 21 minute surrealistic fairy tale which digs up backyard issues of identity, and morality. The three muses of subculture embody our collective hunger for meaningful relationships within marginalized spaces of mainstream Hollywood in this mini camp masterpiece, featuring music by queer icon, Peaches and performances by Love Connie, Johnny Smith, Siri and Nadya Ginsburg as ‘The Worm.’
Jump Cut #3 BTS: The behind the scenes short features a conversation with Austin Young, Dana Gingras, Peaches, Willam Beli, Laganja Estranja and Alaska Thunderfuck.
