Have you ever wondered if queerness can be used to describe the experience of being “othered,” even in one’s very own “motherland?” Join GYOPO’s next program, as we go through the lens of contemporary practices and the lived experiences of artists bending barriers of gender. Transnational Queering considers the nuances of queering, and poses the question of how, or if, queering can be used in non-gendered terms to define the experiences of individuals who embody the varying intersections between the LGBTQ+ communities, those heralding from the “global majority,” and peoples with varying immigration statuses. Artists 𝐊𝐢𝐚𝐦 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐨 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐨, 𝐋𝐚𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐨, 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐋𝐢𝐧, and 𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐮𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐣𝐮𝐧𝐠 focusing on how each explores ideas of queering, followed by a discussion centered around the queering of home and belonging, moderated by 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐌. 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢.
