Transecology is a concept that describes a way of relating to nature without assimilating into norms for bodily life dictated by heteronormative traditions, myths, and sciences. The trans body is often perceived as “unnatural”—either as an aberration, a monstrous anomaly, or an artificial construction of medical technological intervention. Instead, the works of Craig Calderwood, Nicki Green, and Jordan Reznick describe the trans relationship to nature as one of both fact and imaginary, and show transgender life on earth to be deeply historical, radically propagative, and presently imperative.

The CCA Hubbell Street Galleries invites you to an interactive panel discussion featuring artists Craig Calderwood, Nicki Green*, and Jordan Reznick on Thursday, March 21st from 5:30-7:30pm. Come see the Transecologies exhibition before it closes on March 22nd. Refreshments will be served. 

*Nicki Green will be participating remotely
