Event Description : Queer Conversations
Delhi QueerFest is a queer arts festival held across the city in the Fall-Winter. It brings together conversations, performances, visual arts, and publics to hold queer culture as a significant site for politics. Queer is identity, form, narrative, verb, counter-norms, relations, and oppositional practices that challenge dominant ways of seeing, reading, and being in the world that are exclusionary and enforced. QueerFest is in its third year as a community funded festival in the city and looks forward to participation in shaping worlds in the present and struggles for the future.
This year, join us for a day full of conversations, readings, and performances.
PANELS:
1. Finding a Place to Live in the Big City: Gender, sexuality and access to housing, from discrimination to coping strategies.
2. Queers in Difficult Circumstances/Conflict/Occupation/Fascism: What is the connection of
queerness to conflict? How does queerness survive and thrive in times of occupation?
3. The Sex Panel: The current relationship of sex to queerness.
4. Ten years of pride: What does pride mean to Delhi? What does Delhi mean to pride? Who does pride celebrate, who does it forget, and why should we remember this decade?
Interspersed with the panels through the day, will be Hindi and Urdu queer poetry curated by Akhil Katyal.
The poets include: Pratyush Pushkar, Garima Khatri, Dhiren Borisa, Dimple Mithilesh Chaudhary and Nishant Sharma.
