Coral Creating Art Again
Donation protected
(version française suit)
Around midnight on Saturday, June 13th, Coral Short’s home in Montreal was broken into and she was robbed of her most valuable possessions: the equipment she uses to make her art, curate 100s of people and strengthen queer networks in multiple cities and countries. Coral works as a manual labourer in gardens but her whole life is dedicated to her artistic practice, which you can explore at www. coralshort.com These items, which she has spent a long time collecting, are all that she owns. She has lost years of original film footage and all of her tools.
The items stolen were:
Mac Book Pro 13 “ 2009
Mac Book Pro 15 “ 2014
Ipad Mini 2013
A beautiful beloved viola in a blue case
Silver Seagate hard drive
Canon video camera
Many SD cards with original footage
Unfortunately, what was stolen is largely irreplaceable. Together we can help Coral get back to what she loves doing most: making more art and connecting and strengthening the international art world.
We are asking you to help turn this devastating loss around by donating whatever you can, as well as sharing this Go Fund Me with your networks. Funds raised will go towards the replacement of the three things Coral absolutely needs to continue making her art: a Canon camcorder ($480), a Seagate Portable Drive ($140), and a 15-inch MacBook Pro that is well-equipped for film editing ($3300). We are setting a goal of $3000 to get Coral set up again.
This theft is an unfortunate reality, but luckily Coral Short is an unstoppable force to be reckoned with! We want to make sure the loving and caring community Coral has built around her, near and far, has the opportunity to give back to her some of what was so painfully taken away.

Coral Short s’est fait cambrioler, le 13 juin, vers minuit elle s’est fait voler ses biens les plus precieux: l’équipement qu’elle utilise pour sa pratique artistique, en tant qu’artiste et curatrice Coral tisse des liens au travers des communautées queer partout sur la planete. Toute sa vie est dédiée à sa pratique qui est possible grace à son travail en tant que jardinière. Les objets volées sont le fruit de ce travail et sont ses seuls biens de valeur materiel.
Les objets volés:
un MacBook Pro 13“ 2009
un MacBook Pro 15“ 2014
un iPad Mini 2013
un alto bien aimé dans son boitier bleu.
un disque dur argent Seagate
une camera video Canon 2009
plusieurs cartes SD avec les rushes originaux
de nombreux films qui representent plusieurs années de travail
Malheureusement la majorité des biens volés sont irremplacables, mais ensemble nous pouvons permettre à Coral de continuer sa pratique artistique.
Les fonds ammasées serviront pour remplacer quelques biens materiels qui vont permettre a Coral de remplacer une camera vidéo (480$), un disque dur externe (140$) un Macbook Pro pour faire du montage vidéo (3300$), en tout nous aimerions amasser 3000$.
Ce vol est un incident malheureux, mais il n’a pas entamé la résilience de Coral. Nous voulons donner la chance à la communauté qu’elle a su tisser autours d’elle de lui permettre de continuer son travail, reprendre ce qui fut si douloureusement volé.
