M0nster.L4b are interested in linking dissident experiences with ecology, migration, decoloniality and trans identity. The researcher, performer and choreographer Lu Chieregati and the multidisciplinary trans artist and activist Feña Celedón explore queer methods to link and expand drag and choreographic practice through artistic projects.
In November, M0nster.L4b will be in residence at HELLERAU as part of the three-year EU exchange program “Moving Identities” and will provide insights into their research within the Open Studio.
