There are also many outing situations and challenges to manage in everyday life at the University of the Arts. Is the new teacher homophobic or not? Should I leave certain topics alone in my seminar group? Do I feel strong enough today to face astonishment, irritation and sometimes rejection? Uncertainties can also and especially arise in the artistic creative process. Do I / should I make queer art? Are these explicitly political works or is there something like queer aesthetics? Among other things, the workshop serves as a networking platform so that you don't feel alone with the above-mentioned stressors.
Exercises will also be used to experiment with one's own artistic voice and its relationship to queerness. We will track down internalised censorship systems and explore what should and should not belong to one's own artistic expression. Last but not least, there will be input on how microaggressions work and how to counter them.
