writing and informed polemics without pedantry. It assembles
a polyphony of inquiry and documents the messy landscape of
opinion and critique that unravels in close proximity to where
we work, live and make art in Vancouver.

Julia Dahee Hong is an artist based in Vancouver. She is an avid liquorice connoisseur and is often seen scooting in the bike lane of the Georgia Viaduct on her classic red Razor kick scooter. Recently she participated in Artspeak Studio for Emerging Writers led by Sheryda Warrener.
Stacey Ho is an artist, writer, and curator living on unceded Coast Salish territories. Her practice considers intersections of culture, history, and embodied experience from a feminist perspective. With a background in photography and performance art, her art often incorporates language, sound, gesture, and everyday objects. She has presented her work at Art Metropole (Toronto), Galerie oqbo (Berlin), RAM Galleri (Oslo) and most recently in Dar’a: Full Circle, a group exhibition curated by Jamelie Hassan at Artcite (Windsor). She is working on a novel about plants and robots.
Steffanie Ling is a writer, editor and critic. Her books are Nascar (Blank Cheque, 2016) and Cuts of Thin Meat (Spare Room, 2015). In 2016 she attended the Emerging Film Critics Workshop at the 34th Cairo International Film Festival. She is co-founder/editor of Charcuterie.

Juli Majer is a visual artist from Vancouver whose practice comprises drawing, ceramics, sculpture, installation, performance, comics and publishing. She is interested in conveying hyper-polarized psychological and emotional states, which she often mediates through narrative imagery of mysticism and myth, symbolism and snakes, gods and aliens. She teeters on the precipice of a dense and opaque wormhole, pursuing visceral abstractions, inarticulate textures, and peculiar, somatic modes of existence.
