The Polygon Gallery presents Online Conversation: Vancouver Women in Punk, a free online talk on January 15 from 3 to 4 pm.
FILMMAKER, MUSICIAN, ACTOR multimedia artist, and broadcaster Sook-Yin Lee—a member of the 80s Vancouver band Bob’s Your Uncle—is hosting Vancouver Women in Punk, an informal conversation with three equally fierce and notable female figures of the city’s punk and indie music scene.
Joining Lee via Zoom are Jade Blade, a member of the Dishrags, Vancouver’s all-female punk band of the late 1970s and of Volumizer, who now teaches art history and visual studies; musician, novelist, and poet Heather Haley of the Zellots band fame; and Vanessa Richards, member of the 1980s all-female rock band Bolero Lava, who now works in music, film, TV, and other arts-related fields.
The online conversation grew out of OG Punk, photographer Dina Goldstein’s Polygon exhibition, extended to January 16, featuring iconic Vancouver and Victoria artists in the here and now.
