The Jump Cut series is co commissioned by CTM Festival in Berlin, an internationally recognized platform for adventurous music and art.
Jump Cut is a six-part cable-access-style web series of streamed collaborations between multidisciplinary international artists. Conceived by Dana Gingras/Animals of Distinction as a way to survive and thrive in these times, Jump Cut is an opportunity to curate an unpredictable encounter between artists who are currently working in isolation. Each episode will feature a unique combination of artists to create a multi-disciplinary collaboration that will only be accessible as a unique on line experience.
Jump Cut, Episode #3
For Jump Cut #3, Multi-media artist Austin Young brings together drag performance artists Alaska Thunderfuck, Willam Belli and Laganja Estranja to form a triple deity. They are triple-voiced, triple-pointed and triple-faced. Together they playfully engage with themes of transformation and manifestation in a search for an authentic multiplicity.
Jump Cut #3 was made possible with support from Canada Council for the Arts, Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, CTM Festival (Berlin), Take Me Somewhere (Glasgow).
