Works available for booking:WORKSHOP
La Queer Life - Domesticity, Kinship, Utopia
How can we emancipate ourselves from the monolithic model of the nuclear family home and the heteronormativity engraved into our social and architectural landscapes? Inspired by anti-patriarchal and gender-fuck approaches to habitat, this workshop will lead us into a collective exploration of what queerness produces on our domestic impulses. Through graphic and embodied experimentation, we will develop our narratives of connection and shape the contours of our feminist queer utopias.Casual Trouble - What About Institutional Queerness?
How to deploy a queer anti-capitalist discourse in spaces that are complicit in the reproduction of the power structures we denounce? What is our political agency as people whose subsistence depends on compromised institutions? How to be a pragmatic agent of change while living as an artist in a capitalist country? Is it possible to navigate the lack of integrity and ethics in the contemporary art world? Together, we will discuss strategies and tactics to navigate these unsavory situations. Keywords: privilege, cronyism, tokenism, complacency, performativityPERFORMANCE/INSTALLATION
