Teague's Bio

Teague Leigh is an autistic trans man (pronouns he/him), from planets unknown.
These days, due to disability, Teague is letting his landscape images & art creations speak for him. He practices ethical nonmonogamy, hates noisy drones and is not a fan of AI "art" that doesn't credit images.
Currently privileged to be living on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation in Naarm.
All the letters matter: LGBTIAQSB+

Now that the ink is dry on my new Service Agreement I can now announce that I have been hired to curate the Maker Space exhibition. The contract covers work to be undertaken for Arts Access Victoria’s Future Reset – Maker Space Program from June 2024 to December 2024.

Maker Space is a series of online and in person visual and digital arts workshops designed to help 18-25 year old youths (at my age I'm calling them youths!) learn new skills and give them resources to create new works and new friends with the opportunity to showcase new works at the end of October (which is my job to curate!).

Arts Access Victoria (AAV), currently celebrating 50yrs, is the peak body for arts and disability in Victoria (in so-called Australia).

It is thrilling to work for a disability-led organisation that plays a vital role in state, national and international discourse, platforming the work of Deaf and Disabled artists, arts workers and creatives.

As many of you may know, my multimedia series, "The Reclamation of Terra" was largely created in the Arts Access studios - an AAV studio in Merri-Bek I've been practising my own craft at for 18+ months.

I am so grateful to CJ and the stellar team for asking me to come on this journey. As a proud queer, trans, disabled human I can't wait to champion young voices emerging in the art world.

Tonight's the night - a celebration of community unity. My Gala Exhibition Opening - The Reclamation of Terra.

I have partnered with Environment Victoria for the two weeks the exhibition is running. 5% of all sales between 25th January and 5th February will be donated to this amazing grassroots local, state, & national environmental organisation. ❤️

Please remember, if you have sniffles, graciously see the exhibition another time. Forgot your mask? No worries, n95 masks will be provided at the venue.

For access, performers, and audio descriptions, please head to my website.

The end of Pride (June) marks the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.

To mark the occasion, Archer has released my essay "Protest alongside Pride: A call to action" onto the world.

archermagazine.com.au/2023/06/

I hope y'all like it and it drives you to action - especially the allies amongst you. I'm a very proud Daddy.

Please share widely. 👐🏼

PS. You can also search for my previous essay on their website too!

I know that in this economy not everyone can buy art, but independent artists have expenses too, so how about throwing a tip my way?

I'll upload exclusive content for your generous support.

(Updated) Introduction time:

I am a white man nearing his 50's (shhh), with an Irish heritage (Slainte), living as a coloniser on the stolen lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. I am grateful for my position in this life.

I will uplift minority voices and women, over white cis-het straight men of a certain wealth and standing. Grumble somewhere else if this hurts your feelings.

I'm looking for upbeat people (Australian?), fellow rainbow community members (I'm trans masc, bi, queer), photographers (particularly landscape), artists, gallery managers to collaborate with, neurodivergent individuals etc...

All those things describe me, plus I love hiking and camping and [queer] film (oh my).

I use and appreciate content "wrappers"/warnings so I can pick and choose when to engage. I also use and appreciate alt text (either Pascal Case or camel Case) due to my cognitive disability.

I would freaking love to read your own introductions in the comments to this post.

I do not follow journalists, politicians, most "celebrities", or companies. I loathe AI "art", noisy invasive drones, and cyclists who peddle on the footpath and expect me to move out of their way.

I love the moderators on Aus.social 😍

Here in Narrm police are asking for a substantial raise, despite the historical evidence of vice & corruption.

This book is not surprising.
