Profile: Cath Phillips

Authors

Janet Wright

Abstract

There's no boundary between art and politics for Cath Phillips any more than between life, action and sexuality. She was bom a lesbian, she says, and it's a fair guess she was born militant too, or pretty soon learnt to be. "Some lesbians like to be called gay ladies; I like to be called a dyke. I'm gung-ho about reclaiming language."
