𝟭𝟵:𝟯𝟬 - 𝟮𝟬:𝟯𝟬 : Sofa Session #2 Beauty & Disobedient Bodies
Join an inspiring conversation between Ibrahim Ahmed and Déborah Claire on reclaiming one’s body beyond imposed stereotypical beauty standards. Through a process of deconstructing and reconstructing images, Ibrahim Ahmed, photographer and installation artist, interrogates masculinity as a performative construct. Together with Déborah Claire, curator and co-founder of Dis Mon Nom, they will explore the layered, generational influences that shape masculine, feminine, and queer identities. How have the ideas of “man” and “woman,” still largely conceived in opposition, been constructed through visual paradigms and cultural norms? They will open a space to challenge these systemic ideals and embrace the possibility of becoming “disobedient bodies.”
