HOUSE-HOLD was a day of live radio broadcasting for B-Side Radio, curated by Rosa Spring Voss & Josephine Mead. For Blindside's 20th anniversary the gallery was turned into a live radio station.
HOUSE-HOLD was a day of radio programming curated by Rosa Spring Voss and Josephine Mead, to consider expanded notions of care from artist-parents, health practitioners and caregivers. "We want to acknowledge that parenting can come in many forms, with or without biological children. We are interested in alternative methods for world-building and family building that embrace queer, non-normative perspectives. We want to hold space for multiple ways of raising, supporting and loving kin."
