Fran Barrett, Kate Blackmore & Anastasia Zaravinos

PROJECT: DRAG ACTS

A performance artist, a video artist and a performance maker inspired by the Christian story of Saint Wigerfortis - the martyr saint who grew a beard in one night to deter the man she was promised to marry – will create individual works exploring notions of transformation and gender, as responses to each others ideas. So whether the outcomes of the project focuses on the abject, the filmic or the theatrical possibilities of drag and cross-dressing, Drag Act intends to be bent and hairy.

About the Artists
Anastasia Zaravinos is a performance artist, Fran Barrett is a contemporary performance maker and Kate Blackmore is a video artist. Underbelly will provide the opportunity for each artist to develop their own practices through responding to and provoking the processes of the others.
