The CAC - la synagogue de Delme invites the La Queerdom collective for a two-part tour of Brice Dellsperger's Futurs intérieurs exhibition!
Through drag* performance, La Queerdom explores the creative possibilities of the body, creation and the embodiment of an alter ego. In relation to Brice Dellsperger's exhibition, they will talk to us about the importance of drag art in their lives. The tour will be punctuated by multiple interventions inviting us to explore dreamlike or nightmarish worlds, often inspired by science fiction, which question the norms associated with the construction of our identities. A discussion with La Queerdom will follow the event.
With the participation of Feu, Eros, Ginger, Artémis, performers from La Queerdom.
La Queerdom is a wild queer* association made up of non-conformist, transqueer and neuroatypical* people. "We are drag kings, queens, queers, clowns, monstrous and wacky creatures of all kinds. Our mission is to proudly celebrate drag, promote inclusivity, take care of each other, and above all try to create a welcoming safe space* for everyone. Since June 2021, we have been the very first drag collective in Metz."
Sunday, 7 December, from 4pm – tour for discerning public.
CAC – la synagogue de Delme, 33 Rue Poincaré, 57590 Delme
