About the documentary
“FLUID” is a documentary that explores how self-identifying queer artists self-fashion and engage in cultural production as a two-fold approach to queer worldmaking. “FLUID” captures the views of six local and practicing queer artists in Toronto, illuminating what factors affect the clothing choices of queer individuals and their impact on identity.
“FLUID” is the product of a larger research project by Alysia Myette in partial fulfillment of her graduate degree in fashion studies at Ryerson University.
About Trans Awareness Month at Ryerson
Trans Awareness Month at Ryerson is an annual initiative led by Positive Space.
Ryerson community members are invited to participate in advocacy and educational events that celebrate, honour and raise the visibility of the trans community. We also honour the memory of trans people whose live were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence on November 20 for Trans Day of Remembrace.
This year’s events were organized in partnership with committee members from the Library, The Catalyst at FCAD, Faculty of Community Services, Faculty of Communication and Design, Athletics, Human Resources, the Academic Success Centre, Internal Audit, Yeates School of Graduate Student and the Office of the Vice-President Administration and Operations.
