On Screen, presents a series of video works from the David Roberts Collection, showcasing a different video every two weeks, to open up and share works from the collection.

About

Quilla Constance is an exoticized, punk-feminist performance persona, who is seen here quite literally putting on a performance to expose the performative nature of identity and power relations - in a carpeted 'strip club'. 

Humour and discomfort are employed defiantly in Working Lunch, to disrupt patriarchal frameworks and afford agency for her biracial, female identity position. Working Lunch is a re-edit of Strip Show (2006) which is held in the David Roberts Collection. The piece will stream as part of DRAF Broadcasts: On Screen until Wednesday 19 August.
