    Artslink - Episode September 22, 2025

    This month features an interview with photographer Danny Luong about his exhibition called 'trap (disambiguation)', which can be seen at The Bows (2001b 10 Ave SW) until October 11th. https://www.thebows.org/projects/trap-disambiguation https://dannyluong.ca/ Here is the Forward to this exhibition, written by Louis Villanueva: Unskilled and Illegal Have you broken the law? If so, did you feel shame—or necessity? Economists like to divide employment into skilled and unskilled labour. Danny Luong’s exhibition highlights another division: one between legal and illegal work. What does it mean to be an illegal unskilled labourer? To the capitalist, it sounds like you’re illiterate, clumsy, and inexperienced. It means you deserve the constant presence of anxiety and less than a living wage. Your existence is called into question. You barely deserve to live. Made in unregistered cannabis and psilocybin farms, Luong’s work reflects a personal journey fostered by close friendships and art. Luong, a worker and witness, had the explicit permission to document the operation during his shifts. These photographs of anonymous workers and makeshift operations, reveal an ingenuity and imagination in using limited resources toward a life worth living. The vapour barrier in the gallery was installed by members of this community, bringing a private production space into one of leisure. A voyeuristic shock to some, the project is less an underworld to them than as everyday as a construction site. What if skill isn’t about certification, but survival? What if ingenuity thrives where legitimacy is denied? Trying to normalize something illegal feels impossible, but Luong’s labour as an artist effectively contextualizes a very human and very skilled need to make ends meet. https://www.louiev.ca/ Here are the resources Danny mentioned during the program: http://www.exposurephotofestival.com/ https://stefanlegisa.com/
