"Some pieces in the exhibition refer to historic context connected to cruising in what is now called Canada - such as No state (2020) and Pas d'état (2021), a pair of quilts that rework a remark Pierre Elliott Trudeau made in 1967 "there is no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation." This statement, which describes the relationship between nation and the monitoring of sexuality in Canada, overlooks the fact that sexuality also exists beyond bedrooms- and that sex and sexuality are still heavily policed in Canada through a range of policies and activities. No state is also mobilized through a brass necklace, soon to be produced in a gold edition." - Mark Clintberg

« Certaines pièces de l'exposition font référence à un contexte historique lié à la drague (« cruising ») dans ce qu'on appelle aujourd'hui le Canada - comme No state (2020) et Pas d'état (2021), une paire de courtepointes qui reprennent une remarque faite par Pierre Elliott Trudeau en 1967 : "il n'y a pas de place pour l'État dans les chambres de la nation". Cette déclaration, qui décrit la relation entre la nation et le contrôle de la sexualité au Canada, ne tient pas compte du fait que la sexualité existe aussi au-delà des chambres à coucher - et que le sexe et la sexualité sont encore fortement contrôlés au Canada par le biais d'une série de politiques et d'activités. No state est également mobilisé par le biais d'un collier en laiton, qui sera bientôt produit en édition dorée. » - MC
