UNCENSORED PLEASURES is a group show probing into the murky depths and glistening joys of dyke desire. With a fist full of leather or a mouth full of piss, this show is for the proud perverts. The exhibition spotlights a new generation of artists who are tapping into lineages of erotic visual languages. Trends come and go but the semiotics have staying power. There are traces of the hands that made it in the fine lines of the exposed film and the near-perfect prints. That well worn copy of On Our Backs tells you it’s nothing new, but even these days they are daring displays. Banned by the Canadian government or previously self-censored, the works have a coming out story of their own.
Free, no booking required
