ABOUT THE ARTIST + CAUSE:
Andrea Flockhart is an interdisciplinary artist living in Hamilton, Ontario. She graduated with an interdisciplinary BFA from NSCAD university in Halifax. Since returning to Hamilton, Andrea was a founding member of the collaborative arts studio Casino Artspace. She is also a member of the local Aluminum Quilting Society and a participant in a variety of community art projects.
Hamilton Encampment Support Network is a volunteer-run advocacy network supporting the growing community of houseless and unhoused Hamiltonians. HESN was present at both the Ferguson ad First Ontario Centre encampments that were dismantled by the City of Hamilton in October 2020.
We saw, first hand, that advocacy was needed around legal observation and consent-based negotiation between the authorities and encampment residents and we intervened, where asked, when the rights of Hamiltonians were being infringed upon.
