Travestis del Infierno NYC

May 17 @ 7:30 pm10:30 pm

Profane rituals of monstrosity

Spectral speculative performance by PachaQueer, combining lyrical witchcraft and cabaret rebellion to induce sensorial repositories of discomfort and militancy.

A denuncia of social inequalities, TRAVESTIS DEL INFIERNO unravels through a howling Trans* insurrection. This performative sound project emerges as a response to the necropolitical contexts of hate, apathy and extermination; a social parody of morality that activates with insubordinate rhetoric and the languages of rupture from the trans-global south.

Galactic Amazons, symbiotic amoebas, monstras gender terrorists, PachaQueer materialize as supertravesties. Their powers of rage, pleasure and lust infect performance in search of liberation and emancipation, striving to break the paradigms of oppression enforced upon diverse sexualities, and ultimately dismantle the power relations that relentlessly work towards eradication and erasure.

“Travestis Del Infierno” is presented in collaboration with the Leslie Lohman Museum of Art and the Brooklyn Arts Exchange
