About me:

We are QALLECTIVE [queer art collective]. Our goals are to:

-Create SOCIAL CHANGE through ACTION and ART
-Expose, critique, redefine and ESTABLISH SELF-REPRESENTATIONS of the LGBTQ community and individuals
— avoid faulty notions of the universality of experience.
-Emphasize the EMOTIONAL and personal experience of being LGBTQ.
-Include ALL, regardless of gender, sexuality, sex or ethnicity.

Of course, this includes
-Fighting for Equal Rights, Federal Hate Crime Legislation, and Marriage; however, the emphasis will be for social change — changing minds, creating awareness, and acceptance.
Our work and activism will include constant visibility through:

-GUERRILLA PERFORMANCE ART
-An interpretation of “TEATRO CAMPENSINO” (public theatre)
-Public GALLERIES (all mediums of art)
-non-permanent STREET ART (chalk, post-its, stickers)
-DEMONSTRATIONS (kiss-ins, protests, etc)

As well as,
-Public WORKSHOPS to spread awareness of social inequalities and present true representations of ourselves, our experiences and communities.
