Paper Trails

Join the Origin Papers Team for the Paper Trails Podcast, where the OP team comes together to try to make sense of society, culture, and identity. How do you make sense of the world around you? Our identities are shaped and changed by each time we see a new way of life. Each time we learn something new or unlearn something we know, our identities change. We sometimes struggle to find ourselves within ourselves, people and in spaces. Our imaginations are powerful tools for creation, learning to love, and accept each other. You can expect fun, jokes; maybe some tears too.

    Artist, Model, and Actress- Jade Pattenden

    As an artist, model, background performer, stand-in and photo-double; Jade Pattenden is surely a multidisciplinary talent to say the least! Born in Melrose, Scotland to her Zambian mother and Scottish father, Jade moved to so called Canada at the age of eleven and to Vancouver in 2015. Nurtured by a creative family, art has been a major part of Jade's life and she quickly fell in love with the art of painting portraits at a young age. "I believe there is beauty in the expression of one's eyes and I love the challenge of showing it in a piece of art. Jade and Tinthi met back in 2016, on set as background performers (one of Jade's multiple talents). They both bonded on the fact that they were half Zambian and found comfort in spending time together on different shows, and now call themselves good friends. They took on the discussion of their experiences with the local Vancouver Film and Creative industry overall.  Show notes: "Our liberation comes from us having proper representations of who we are..." - Tinthi "Yeah I want to make money and work, but at the same time your morals are like.... do I wanna prove a point and make a stand and say no I’m not doing this?"

    Abstract Neo-Expressionism: Moannah Krome

    Moannah is a neo abstract expressionist. Neo-expressionism is a style of late modernist or early-postmodern painting and sculpture that emerged in the late 1970s. It is characterized by intense subjectivity and rough handling of materials. Moannah chose to add their own touch on the color choice of this style using varnishes creating a lighting effect that truly touches the soul. A memorable moment at our blood money show in Seattle was when Moannah made someone cry through their piece and it touched my soul that we could create an environment for those types of deep emotions.

    Foodsters United

    Today, over 3000 essential workers will lose their jobs as Foodora, a food delivery app that operates in 10 cities across Canada, shuts down its Canadian operations. At a time when most people are staying home, and no one is going out to restaurants, shouldn’t the food delivery business be booming? Well, it is: Delivery Hero, the Berlin-based company that owns Foodora, made 2 billion dollars in revenue last year, and posted a 92% growth in revenue this year. Needless to say the shutdown came as a complete shock to Foodora’s couriers, and their  unofficial union, Foodsters United. The Foodora couriers aren’t your typical gig economy workers: just two months ago, the Ontario Labour Relations Board ruled that they’re dependent contractors, which gives them the right to form a union. It seemed like the typical pitfalls of the gig economy- precarious work, no sick or injury pay, no voice in the company- might finally be changing for the Foodsters. Now that Foodora is packing up, what’s next for Foodsters United? We talk to Alex Kurth, courier and member of Foodsters United, to discuss allegations of union busting, organizing gig workers, and what it’s like to deliver food during the COVID crisis. Click here for more information about Foodsters United. Photos: Tess Siksay
