Rayanne Haines

As a researcher, Rayanne is most interested in the confluence of intersectional women/non-binary peoples lived experiences and the artistic journey. She wants to understand how these lived experiences impact the modern arts industry/structure. As both a teacher and researcher, she believes it is important to problematize questions around how feminist language fits within intersectional conversations. How does race, gender and social class intersect to shape perceptions, beliefs and behaviours in Canadian arts organizations? How does intersectionality affect the social construction of leadership in Canadian arts organizations? How is access to diverse stories re-shaping understandings of trauma narratives in women and non-binary people’s artistic expression? Her arts practice and research focuses on projects that empower women’s narratives and that make social comment on the treatment of women in modern society. Her current work concentrates on mental health and intergenerational trauma. Further to this, she is actively researching for a new manuscript that interrogates the connections between grief and identity. Rayanne welcomes conversations about creating safe spaces as arts leaders with discussions around leadership, audience development and resource development. | Publishing, literature, leadership and governance, resource development, festival management, contracts and royalties
