to actively—and re/productively—situate artists in community-based
AIDS service organizations (CBAO). This goal of re/productivity explores
the healing possibilities in making and responding to art without reliance on the pathologizing tendencies of "art therapy," and also seeks
to address the increasingly pressured issue of available workspace for artists in inner city environments. This Is Not Art Therapy tests this design at the Toronto People With AIDS Foundation (PWA), one of Canada’s oldest
and largest direct service organizations for people living with HIV/AIDS.
The program evolves from and responds to three threads: 1) the rich and
influential history of arts-based activism that first emerged in the battle
with HIV/AIDS during the initial decade of the pandemic (a critical phase
for recognizing and naming the virus, and the timely development and
dissemination of treatment); 2) PWA strategic planning in response to
urgent client-based requests for arts programming free of therapeutic attachments; and 3) my master’s research project, titled Disco Hospital, an
interrogation of the impact that queer perspectives can have on healing
processes and spaces.
