In the spring of 2021, Barry was given the opportunity to make a new performance through a professional at-home residency called PERFORMANCE RESOLUTION(S) with FADO Performance Art Centre (Toronto, Canada).

In Queer Lines, Barry abstracts the traditional Pride flag by using handmade paintbrushes including a brush that is made from the artist’s hair. In the work, the objects for painting act as extensions of her body blurring the boundaries between performance and painting as well as body and canvas.
Queer Lines was exhibited at the RBC Media Gallery at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, October 2022.
