Andrea Creamer is a renter, worker, community organizer, and interdisciplinary artist. She is interested about the intersection of politics, urbanization, community-based art practices, and is invested in creating equitable opportunities for systemic and social change through the arts. Andrea holds a Master's of Visual Studies from the University of Toronto and a BFA from Simon Fraser University. Her art practice reflects on forms of protest, the mechanisms that produce social spaces, and the ephemeral and always shifting character of socially-based practices. She currently lives in Tkaranto/Toronto with her elderly cat, Goldie.Resources:— The Toast Collective: http://thetoast.org/— The Arts and Cultural Workers Union: https://www.valucoop.ca/acwu— Anti-Fascist Karaoke Lounge Party (Access Gallery, 2018): https://accessgallery.ca/event/anti-fascist-karaoke-lounge-party-film-screenings— Burnaby Primary Care Networks: https://burnabypcn.ca/— Burnaby Community Fridge (now at SFU Burnaby!): https://burnabypcn.ca/allied-health/fridge/

Andrea Luka Zimmerman is a Jarman Award winning artist, filmmaker and cultural activist whose multi-layered practice calls for a profound re-imagining of the relationship between people, place and ecology. Focusing on marginalised individuals, communities and experience, the engaged practice employs imaginative hybridity and narrative re-framing, alongside reverie and a creative waywardness. Informed by suppressed histories, and alert to sources of radical hope, the work prioritises an enduring and equitable co-existence. Andrea grew up on a large council estate and left school at 16.Films include the Artangel-produced 'Here for Life' (2019), which received its world premiere in the Cineasti Del Presente international competition of the Locarno Film Festival (winning a Special Mention), 'Erase and Forget' (2017), premiering at the Berlin Film Festival (nominated for the Original Documentary Award), 'Estate, a Reverie' (2015) (nominated for Best Newcomer at the Grierson awards) and 'Taskafa, Stories of the Street' (2013), written and voiced by the late John Berger.Selected exhibitions include 'Civil Rites', the London Open, Whitechapel Gallery, 'Common Ground' at Spike Island, Bristol and 'Real Estates' at Peer Gallery. Andrea co-founded the cultural collectives Fugitive Images and Vision Machine (collaborators on Academy Award® nominated feature documentary 'The Look of Silence').Andrea co-edited the books 'Estate: Art, Politics and Social Housing in Britain' (Myrdle Court Press) and 'Doorways: Women, Homelessness Trauma and Resistance' (House Sparrow Press) and has published extended essays in 'Open Democracy', 'La Furia Umana', 'Another Gaze' and 'Homecultures', among others.Resources: — Fugitive Imageshttps://fugitiveimages.org.uk/about/— Taskafa, Stories of the Streethttps://lux.org.uk/work/taskafa-stories-of-the-street— Estate, a Reveriehttps://lux.org.uk/work/013429-estate-a-reverie— Here For Lifehttps://www.artangel.org.uk/project/here-for-life/— Shelter in Place https://www.estuaryfestival.com/event/detail/shelter-in-place.html
