The event is a chance for us all to throw our gender assumptions up in the air, laugh at the ensuing chaos and emerge refreshed!
It is an art event, designed to cleanse our palates and revaluate our perceptions of gender. The emphasis is on using nonsense as a tool, set against a background installation of the artist’s personal fairytales, populated by supportive magical beings. These magical beings were created through collaborations, both with adults & the artist’s (then young) child.
About the Artist
Melody Carey Art is a project centred around a fictional autobiography written by Kelly Stubbs. Kelly didn’t have the understanding she needed to come out as a transgender woman, until relatively late in life. After more overtly political projects like Liverpool Trans Pride & promoting access to art for transgender people, she has been developing her autobiography and associated art practice, as a way of coming to terms with both the joys and barriers she faces as a transgender woman.
This event is part of The Royal Standard’s Biennial 2023 programme and will be ticketed
