A car stands there. Trunk open. The radio is playing. Women* and queers are talking. And they talk about class. Based on interviews, the installation Fashionshow: Working Class Daughters negotiates questions of class, gender and migration. In the process, one's own role as, among other things, a working class academic is reflected upon - and almost incidentally, intersectionality and links to other identity and structural categories are revealed. The installation is based on a previous performance and the T-shirt collection specially designed for it, and takes up images of Eastern European markets and informal trade. It subtly refers to a current phenomenon in which so-called "work-wear" finds its way into high-fashion contexts.

What's classy if you're rich, but trashy if you're poor?

* Working Class Daughters refers to women as all those who self-identify and/or are read as such and are structurally discriminated as women. That doesn't have to say anything about the gender identity of each individual person.

WORKING CLASS DAUGHTERS is a cycle of work on the interconnections of class, gender and migration that Kristina Dreit, Karolina Dreit, Anna Trzpis-Mclean have been working on since 2018. Based on (their own) post-Soviet migratory experiences and a long friendship and sisterhood, they are especially interested in (biographical) stories that remain invisible or hardly find a voice, as well as historical and current references to labor and labor struggles.
