LGBTI Resistances

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Mabel

Wandering femininity, an artist who contains in that subjectivity the aesthetic and political register of making her non-binaryism an artistic quest to transcend languages. She was one of the artists invited to the latest projects of el colectivo Ópera Periférica, she closed the exhibition “Panorama, week of art galleries in Argentina” in Munar with her performance “Realidad Fantasía”. He is also a DJ, he released his single “Me caigo”, produced and mixed by Matt Montero and released during the pandemic era on all platforms. Mabel vindicates the decision to take her performance to other spaces, but she does not think or want to leave the night.

Milonga Queer (Argentina)

Susy Shock and  Bandada de Colibríes (Flock of Hummingbirds) perform Milonga Queer, track two on the concept album Traviarca, nominated to the Gardel Awards. Emiliano Romer (director) states, “Milonga Queer is a manifesto that deserves a video clip starring great film actors, who put themselves in the shoes of the dinosaurs of society, who don’t accept gender diversity. We play with the aesthetics of film noir and Susy Shock as our tango Diva.”
