  20. PARENTHOOD AFTER LOSS: ELLIE ANGLIN’S FIRST MEMOIR

    On Mar. 14, 2026, local art space and small-scale risograph print shop, Dirty Work Studio, hosted a book launch event for Kitchener artist and writer, Ellie Anglin, for her first book, Reproduction: Death, Birth & the Turkey Baster, published by Publication Studio Guelph.  

    The book is a graphic memoir and practical guide that traces Anglin’s pursuit of parenthood in the shadow of profound loss.   

    Anglin describes her attempts to conceive a child with her wife, while navigating the fertility industry, which is interrupted by overwhelming grief after losing her parents. The couple’s struggles push them away from institutional practice and toward home insemination, affectionately known as the Turkey Baster Method.  

    While the subject matter is heavy, Anglin emphasizes the underlying warmth of the work.  

    “Although death and birth are very painful and dark subjects… there’s a lot of joy and humour in it as well,” Anglin said. “All of these things are only so important to us because they’re all about love.”  

    Anglin is a multi-media visual artist and writer based in Kitchener. She takes inspiration from feminist and queer art traditions, and her works blend different motifs and elements such as collage, memoir and self-publishing practices that explore identity, magic, pop culture and the collective imagination.  

    The publication of her book marks a major milestone for Anglin, who has long been a staple of the local do-it-yourself (DIY) scene.  

    “I have been making zines for probably over 20 years now, and I’ve self-published 35 zines,” she said. “So, to have my first official book publication is a big honour.”  

    Shalaka Jadhav, Kitchener-based curator, writer, cultural strategist, co-founder of Dirty Work Studio and a long-time collaborator of Anglin’s, noted that independent spaces are crucial for first-time authors who often face significant barriers in the Canadian publishing industry.  

    “It can be really intimidating,” Jadhav said. “So, it’s really important to have the space where you can invite family and the general public and allow for people to mix.”  

    The book launch was hosted at Dirty Work Studio, which is located at 100 Park St.  

    “I’m so, so excited to have a studio like this in downtown Kitchener,” Anglin said. “Such an awesome arts community here, and then this studio is just like the cherry on top with so much celebration of DIY queer and women’s art.”  

    The event transformed the studio into an immersive gallery, featuring Anglin’s surrealistic collage work and looping video remixes of the book’s illustrations.  

    Jadhav explained that the goal of the night was to help the work burst out of Anglin’s book.  

    “We want to be a space where artists can realize all kinds of projects and to sort of experiment,” Jadhav said. “Having a DIY space where things can be a little bit more experimental and loose means that Ellie can try new things and expand her practice.”  

    The highlight of the evening was a live performance involving costumes and props, a project Anglin developed over the final weeks of her three-year journey to bring the book to life.  

    Anglin said that the visual components from the event were a natural extension of the book’s creation.  

    “I kind of took the collage fragments but then reassembled them into different collages to create new meanings,” she said.  

    The reach of the project extends far beyond Kitchener due to Publication Studio’s unique open source model. As Jadhav explained, any of the studio’s sister locations worldwide, from Guelph to Brazil, can download, print and bind Anglin’s work locally.  

    Ultimately, the launch served as a testament to the resilience of the local creative scene.  

    “This is a total labour of love,” Jadhav said, noting that the studio is a self-funded effort by its members. “The more people show up to our events, the more we see it as a show of support that this space should exist.”

    “We want to be a space where artists can realize all kinds of projects and to sort of experiment,” Jadhav said. “Having a DIY space where things can be a little bit more experimental and loose means that Ellie can try new things and expand her practice.”  

    The highlight of the evening was a live performance involving costumes and props, a project Anglin developed over the final weeks of her three-year journey to bring the book to life.  

    Anglin said that the visual components from the event were a natural extension of the book’s creation.  

    “I kind of took the collage fragments but then reassembled them into different collages to create new meanings,” she said.  

    The reach of the project extends far beyond Kitchener due to Publication Studio’s unique open source model. As Jadhav explained, any of the studio’s sister locations worldwide, from Guelph to Brazil, can download, print and bind Anglin’s work locally.  

    Ultimately, the launch served as a testament to the resilience of the local creative scene.  

    “This is a total labour of love,” Jadhav said, noting that the studio is a self-funded effort by its members. “The more people show up to our events, the more we see it as a show of support that this space should exist.”

    Release Date: Nov. 7, 2025

    City: Kitchener 

    Genre: Garage Rock, Punk

    Two years in the making, Maiden Lane presents their loudest and most intense performance to date.

The album is available exclusively on Bandcamp.

  26. DOCUMENTARY COVERS WILMOT LAND GRAB

    On Jan. 19, 2025, the first part of a three-part mini documentary, Unearthed, about the Wilmot land grab was posted on YouTube. With executive producers John and Kathie Jordan, and director and editor Thom Varey, they sought to give voice to farmers and Wilmot residents.  

    “The objective of this project is to assemble one contiguous parcel of land as a step toward attracting a major employer for the future and securing well-paying jobs and further economic prosperity,” the Region of Waterloo said in a statement.  

    In the first episode, viewers heard directly from impacted farmers who are left wondering what is next for their farms and livelihoods. In the second they covered the small amount of farmland that exists and in the third they spoke about the true cost of the land assembly to residents in Wilmot and beyond.  

    “We’re dealing with a bunch of city people that have no idea about farming, and about the land and the soil itself,” Jordan said.   

    The 12-minute-long documentary stands as a call to action for residents of the Waterloo Region and beyond, as well as a call for local politicians to speak up and speak out against the Wilmot land assembly.   

    “How much more critical of a mineral do you need than soil?  Because you can’t make more of it. Well, not without a few thourand years,” Jordan said.   

    Jordan and his family live across from the 770 in what is referred to as the Shadowlands in Wilmot. It is referred to as such because whatever happens on the land assembly will affect the residents who live in the area.   

    “Our well is only 19 and a half feet deep, and I get it tested, and the water is perfect, but they’re gonna start messing with the soil and the water, I don’t know what will happen to our water quality then,” Jordan said.   

    In 2022, Statistics Canada found Ontario was losing 319 acres of farmland per day to development. Compared to 2016, 175 acres were being lost per day. This is a 319 per cent increase in development. Many farmers and residents of Wilmot are concerned with this growth rate, as a majority of Ontario’s farmland is in Wilmot.  

    “The province has put these parameters around the lack of engagement, around a lack of transparency, around NDAs. And is ultimately funding the entire scheme,” Catherine Fife, MPP for Waterloo Region, said.   

    The documentary was created in partnership with the Wilmot Civic Action Network. The network unites community groups and neighbours to advocate for farmland. Quality of life, a transparent government, financial accountability and environmental responsibility are the tenants that the network operates by.   

    “This is a turning point really for agriculture in Ontario. If you can be so disrespectful to these farmers in Wilmot, then you will do this to other farmers,” Fife said.   

    Jordan and the Wilmot Civic Action Network are not opposed to development, however only if it does sustainably and responsibly. They demand transparency and accountability from elected municipal and provincial leaders.   

    “The entire infrastructure piece is going to be incredibly expensive. There will be a financial impact on the taxpayers and the residents of the Waterloo Region. That is why they deserve to have a voice in this,” Fife said.
