Bristol’s Spike Island to present Harmonycrumb, a new commission by Flo Brooks exploring trans and gender-nonconforming histories through painting and assemblage

Together, these works explore speculative entanglements between Brook’s own life and the experiences of different historical figures, including military leader Joan of Arc (1412-31), ‘female husband’ Charles Hamilton (1721-46), and physician Michael Dillon/Lobzang Jivaka (1915-62).
