QUEERING THE EVERYDAY THROUGH MASKING
his practical workshop explores masking as a queer performative practice for transforming everyday life. Rather than conceiving the mask as an object that conceals identity, participants investigate masking as a process that disrupts normative ways of inhabiting the body, relating to others, and moving through public space. Through simple materials, wearable interventions, movement, play, and site-responsive actions, ordinary gestures become opportunities for poetic, political, and collective transformation.
Drawing from queer performance, autobiographical creation, and devised theatre, the workshop introduces practical strategies for creating temporary masks and performative actions rooted in everyday experience. Rather than offering a fixed method, this process-oriented workshop invites participants to experiment with masking as a tool for queering the everyday and imagining alternative ways of being together.
