    Ruckus Women Collective is a group of creators who subvert colonial, capitalist, racist, and patriarchal standards. As members and supporters of queer, BIPOC, disabled, and racialized communities, the Ruckus Women aim to facilitate the sharing and creation of ant-establishment art, dismantling oppressive institutions and empowering those not being given a seat at the table.

    S2/EP2 - Art for Art's Sake

    Art for art, or l’art pour l’art, is a philosophy that originated in France in the early 19th century that suggests the purpose of art is not to serve some higher moral, cultural, or political purpose; rather, the value lies in the artistic pursuit itself. This bohemian slogan inspired a movement advocating that art needs no justification. On this episode, we chatted with Josh Gallina, the artistic director of Bloody Nails Cinema, about creating for the sake of creating and allowing the love of an art form to be reason enough to pursue it.
