Pretty Porky and Pissed Off
Pretty Porky & Pissed Off (PPPO) was a Canadian fat activist and performance art collective based in Toronto, Ontario from 1996 – 2005. Their feminist, queer, and LGBT politics were part of the DIY ethics of punk rock and the Riot Grrrl movement, and feminist activism. PPPO was a Canadian trailblazer in the international fat acceptance movement.
==History==
Pretty Porky and Pissed Off was founded by Allyson Mitchell, Ruby Rowan and Mariko Tamaki in 1996, when they gathered friends and allies and staged their first performative political action on Queen Street West in the heart of Toronto's fashion district. As fat women playfully dressed in bright colours, polyester and camp, they asked passers by, “Do I look fat in these pants?” While this street performance called out a lack of desirable plus-sized fashion available to fat people it was furthermore the humble beginnings of what was to become a long-term, collaborative, grassroots art activism project in the fat liberation movement that engaged radical ideas about the body at various intersections (including dimensions of the personal, political, physical, spiritual, emotional, as well as class, race, gender, sexuality, ability, health and size).
Pretty Porky and Pissed Off's membership grew to include Lisa Ayuso, Gillian Bell, Joanne Huffa, Abi Slone, Tracy Tidgwell and Zoe Whittall. Together they collaborated on political and creative projects using performance, writing, and visual art. Known for both their satirical and sincere works as well as for their use of queer spectacle, they employed dance, skits, writing, spoken word, collage, crafting, zine-making and self-publishing, community organizing, photography, film and video their works.
Pretty Porky and Pissed Off was also engaged in education, giving workshops and lectures (PPPO was a 2004 artist in residence for the Mayworks in the School Program for Toronto's Mayworks Festival of Working People in the Arts), and community building organizing clothing swaps, pot-lucks parties and gatherings).
