INVERSE/THE FUTURE IS OFTEN A STEP BEHIND
PHI CENTRE

An experimental documentary in three parts, by Nicolas Jenkins, that aims to question the prevailing assimilation of 2SLGBTQIA+ identities.
INVERSE/THE FUTURE IS OFTEN A STEP BEHIND is an experimental documentary exhibit in three tableaus by Nicolas Jenkins, which aims to question the prevailing assimilation of 2SLGBTQIA+ identities. The documentary presents a multigenerational portrait of queer communities through the daily lives of participants in New York City.
The exhibit highlights fluidity and change, both in terms of gender and sexuality and our understanding of them. This work by Nicolas Jenkins is also a reminder that we have not moved beyond racism, sexism, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, and the stigma of HIV and AIDS.
