Lou Lou Sainsbury: Earth is a Deadname
Earth is a Deadname is the first institutional solo exhibition by Margate and Rotterdam-based artist Lou Lou Sainsbury, installed first at Gasworks, London (July 2022) and then at Humber Street Gallery, Hull.
Identifying as a time traveller, Sainsbury works across film and performance, poetry and textiles. Her work unwrites and rewrites the natural history of living beings, inviting the viewer to delve into alternate mythologies informed by queer and ecological activisms. Sainsbury鈥檚 performances and films result from long-term research developed through collective study and collaborative processes.
In Earth is a Deadname, she presents a newly commissioned body of work that seeks to reimagine transgender experience beyond the limiting language of medicalisation, rewriting its histories into a cosmic poetics of trans sensuality, relation and desire.
