The affinity group for queer BIPoC disabled group KIWI – Knowing institutions from within invites to an open meeting in the SAG space on Wednesday June 14 from 16.00 to 18.00, hosted by Tis Aly. The group is an attempt to bring folks to share their experiences in working with institutions and find ways to deal with their lack of looking at certain issues, envisioning what can be reviewed and renewed. KIWI invites to look for common grounds and ways to start, open or continue dialogues with institutions of art related to politics towards BIPoC, crip and queer folks.

Who is invited: BIPoCs, Crips and Queers, professionals of art, independent artists, lawyers, policy makers, social studies, people working in the fields and on its various branches of it. For the gathering within the frame of Leisure and Pleasure the group will be open for allies, with Lena Kollender and Mateusz Szymanówka from the curatorial team of the festival, also present at this session.

TIS ALY is a queer BIPOC Brazilian artist, based in Berlin. Since 2006, Tis works within the fields of contemporary art, movement and dance, politics and social activations. Tis has been developing authorship performances, as well, working with groups and artists in the context of European Union, Brazil and South Korea. “As an artist my main goal is transformation, as an individual is the respect and more social justice and love within the society”.

Sickness Affinity Group (SAG) is a group of art workers and activists who work on the topic of sickness/disability and/or are affected by sickness/disability. Sickness Affinity Group functions as a support group that challenges the competitive and ableist mode of working in the arts by sharing experiences and information and by prioritizing the well-being and access needs of its group members. Sickness Affinity Group investigates accessibility as both a topic and curatorial method. They aim to celebrate and create room for non-normative bodies, politics and desires, as well as offering a supportive environment for fragility and wellbeing. Sickness Affinity Group holds regular meetings in Berlin and maintains an email list. Sickness Affinity Group members collaborate on projects in small working groups and report back from their process in the bi-monthly meetings. You can sign up to the Mailing List to share/receive information and to attend upcoming meetings.
