elena leigh – behind the door
Elana, the youngest of three children, was born into apartheid South Africa in June 1958. Being born to a White Jewish family and placed in the hands of a quiet, loving, and spiritual Coloured woman laid the foundation for the central narrative of her life.
Birthed by one mother and raised by two, whilst a common theme in South Africa is not one where the long-term effects have been processed. A multilayered and complex relational template to live with, the narrative from its inception opens the pathway to guilt, confusion, duality, and a life where polarities and binary thinking informs most choices and states of being.
In this exhibition the artist is using objects, images, and stories from both mothers as an expression of her longing to integrate and make sense of the intolerable juxtapositions which informed her life.

2020 Sydney Pride Festival went online with Love stream and in a challenging year of COVID and lockdowns we stayed connected to the LGBTQIA community. LGBTQIA community and our allies could log into our pride events and we were able to reach a wider online audience. The amazing Global Pride broadcast allowed us to see our friends around the world coming together in a 24 hour special. Pride will continue to have an online presence as well as live events in 2021. Sydney Pride Festival will focus on helping rebuild our community and work closely with organizations, venues, theatres and charities to create exciting events in this grass roots festival. Many LGBTQIA businesses, festivals and venues around the world have closed through the pandemic and some will never return. Here in Australia we have been lucky but it has not been easy. Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras has given us hope and on Saturday 6th march they created an amazing first major event since the pandemic started. Mardi Gras was our last big celebration in 2020 and our first bright light in 2021.

COVID has made us stronger and more determined than ever to look after each other. Loss of Jobs, Mental Health and fear of the pandemic have had an effect on all of us. We must learn to care and except people who are from different cultures, have different views and come together and have pride in our community. How we interact through discussion, education and understanding is important to our future.
