Season 2, Episode 3 - Amy and Pippa on Queer Treatment

Conversations Over a Brew

For our third episode of season two, we hear from Amy Pennington and Pippa Sterk.

Amy is an artist whose work is founded upon collaboration with others. They use humour to connect human experiences and socio-political issues.

--------------------

Last year, Heart Of Glass commissioned Amy to create Queer Treatment, an online workshop to explore queer identity and representation within our media culture. This workshop went on to inspire an animated film of the same name.

Pippa is a writer and researcher who is currently preparing their PhD research on LGBT+ experiences in Higher Education.

Amy and Pippa met through the Queer Treatment workshop; Pippa as a participant and Amy as a facilitator, and during this conversation the pair reflect on Queer Treatment and what it meant to them.

We also commissioned Pippa to write a reflective piece of writing based on their experience of participating in the Queer Treatment workshop you can read this piece by clicking the link below.
