Kìzis, Be Grateful To Know Us
“Based in Montreal, Kìzis is an Indigenous, two-spirit artist who challenges conformity with her artistic expressions. Her new album, Turn/Tidibàbide, is as much a collaborative album as it is a family record with around fifty collaborators including the appearance of Beverly Glenn Copeland, Owen Pallett, Cub Sport's Tim Nelson and many more. Kìzis’ experimental knacks and spellbinding grooves produce a flawless synergy with elements of techno, pop, poetry, and Algonquin dance melodies Kìzis dismantles the notion of what it means to be alive today. The energy behind her harmonies is a sign of hope for the future.”
Rosie Evans - Age of maximalism
“Rosie Evans, a Welsh designer, now residing in Brighton, is breathing new life into genderless corsets and revitalising the previously negative historical context behind bodices. Corsets, since the fifteen and sixteen hundreds have always been kind of a ‘taboo’ subject, from the dangers of tight lacing, classism, sexism and a whole litany of health problems from posture to poor digestion. Women then and now are being told what to wear. But, Rosie Evans leaves behind any historical notions of corsets as oppressive.”
