I create a dialog between still and moving images, as well as sound to express my ideas around intimacy and family. I hope to contribute to visual representation of alternative, queer family structures, as I rarely find images that reflect my life choices and those of the people around me.<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with many of my previous works, this one addresses friendship and community, as they continue to play a critical role in my life. I embrace the tension that exists when seemingly banal gestures are enacted by non-traditional bodies&#8217;. &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jjlevine.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">JJ Levine<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>[The copyright of the videos above remains with the original holder and it is used here for the purpose of education, comparison and criticism only.]<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video (3:25): FAMILY by JJ Levine at La Centrale Powerhouse, Montreal, November 11 &#8211; December 9, 2016.
