show.rooms_global - Mapping the Unseen

Mapping LGBTIQ
4.–9. 11. 2019 Dordićeva 8a/II, Zagreb, HR

With the artistic research project Mapping the Unseen, which is based on show.Rooms_global, further topics could be made visible, research could be deepened and a virtual archive could be created.
The first project took place in Croatia in 2019 and in Austria in 2020. The connection to the association Vox feminae/Common Zone, was led by the Guide Dina Ivan and Vox Feminae has chosen the taboo topic LGBTIQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, intersexual, queer). As Dina lived and worked both in Klagenfurt and Zagreb, she qualified as a guide in this project. As a result, the Vox feminae/Common Zone designed a program in an office space, a youth organization for peace and reconciliation work, entitled.
„Re-traditionalization of Croatian society, in the sphere of politics, media and education, is followed by re-traditionalization of culture and contemporary means of artistic expression..(...) This societal turmoil is hitting LGBTIQ community particularly hard." Common Zone
