Arte Trans Peruano / El tobillo de Kleo

18:30 h. Performance Arte Trans Peruano by Frau Diamanda

Arte Trans Peruano is a performative conference by Frau Diamanda that attempts to map performative practices made invisible by the contemporary Peruvian art system, dealing with works by Giuseppe Campuzano, Javi Vargas, Pedro Palanca, Coco Cielo “Antartika”, Javier Temple, Carlita Uchu, Bondage, David Sánchez “Misia”, Frau Diamanda and Porno Stars / Elektromarikapop. The works of these artists are inscribed within a queer-transvestite historicity that demands to be revisited in order to reassess the sex-political struggle. 

19:20 h. Performance El tobillo de Kleo by Kleo la Faraona

El tobillo de Kleo is chapter 1 of the work Los 7 secretos de Kleo, a performance dealing with bodily pain, body modifications, not being able to mobilise, life patterns, stability, vulnerability, inequality, struggle and privilege.
