A red glowing heart is in the middle of the image on a red background. The heart's outline is decorated with small light pink and white beading, some are dripping delicately from the bottom of the heart. In the center of the heart is the text The Sweetest Little Thing 2026 also in beading. 2026 GRAPHICS BY EMMA HASSENCAHL-PERLEY

How to Build a Fire: Amy, Mike, Josh, Lori and Ross, 2024. 13m 39s.

This video by Kerri Flannigan grew out of anxieties about climate change and curiosities about wildfire.

GHOSTS, Max Dooher, 2024. 5m 26s.

GHOSTS is an experimental short film that examines the spectral nature of digital surveillance through a fragmented digital montage.

Circles, Sarah Houle, 2024. 4m 24s.

Circles is grounded in the Cree teaching of closing circles after opening them and using this concept as a practical and spiritual practice for balance and peace; reflecting on universal questions of where we come from and where.

"dream zones hormones undertones fish bones" by Daze Jefferies (12m 30s) explores intergenerational connections and hope for the future among trans femmes on the internet, at the turn of the millennium, in Atlantic Canada.

"Dismembered fixations" by Francisco González-Rosas, (5m 36s) is a video monologue that conveys a subjective account about the way queer and racialized identities are commodified and showcased as spectacle in mainstream media.

Friday January 31 at 7pm - That's tonight!
Come to Struts Gallery and watch PLAY BACK. This is a screening of video work by recent Artists-in-Residence Francisco González Rosas, Sarah Houle, Kerri Flannigan, Daze Jefferies & Max Dooher.
