Emily Nestor
Emily Nestor (she/her) is an emerging artist and curator residing on Treaty 4 territory. Both artistically and curatorially, she is driven by an interest in the intersections of care and labour. This interest is derived largely from her upbringing in rural Saskatchewan. Through work that references Catholic traditionalism in the context of rural spaces, she challenges the gendered notions of the labour of caregivers through recontextualizing acts of care within a queer perspective.
“a good wife”
Through the tender act of preparing a sourdough loaf, set to the sounds of junior hockey games and gravel roads, a good wife utilizes connotations of gendered domestic labour and tropes of online personalities of ‘traditional wives’ to consider the role of caregiving within rural and queer contexts.
