West Coast League of Lady Wrestlers

Inspired by the spectacle that is inherent to professional wrestling, we are an art collective formed in celebration of feminine identities and subversion of traditional gender roles and expectations.

The West Coast League Of Lady Wrestlers was founded by artists with a common desire to explore the intersections between performance and the male gaze in visual culture. The West Coast League Of Lady Wrestlers is the newest baby sister of our wild, weird and wonderful family. Compiled by artists from various backgrounds living on Vancouver Island and the British Columbia Mainland, we collaborate to craft our performances in the spirit of spectacle sports, humour and the accessibility of art.
