Trans*Performativity is an ongoing project that consists of the transposition of trans* experiences into contemporary practices that fuse audiovisuals and the creation of collective performances.The movement subjectively represents processes of transformation and metamorphosis, the scenography proposes an innovative and safe space, the costumes weave individual and collective identity, and the light design gives visibility to underrepresented matters, allowing the audience to perceive, understand and participate freely.
The performance will take place 6pm-7pm and will be followed by an informal talk 7pm-8pm.
*Trans includes anyone within the transgender spectrum (trans men, trans women, non-binary people, androgynous, demiboy, demigirl, two-spirit, genderqueer, genderfluid, agender, intersex, gender non-conforming, drag kings, drag queens, crossdressers, transvestites, gender questioning people, etc.)
