THIS WEEKEND ! GÀKTAKURSA PT 2 🏳️‍🌈

As a part of our on-going curatorial project «QUEER RESITANCE MOVEMENTS», we have invited Sami activist and journalist Dávvet Bruun Solbakk and Garmeres to curate a chapter dedicated to q***r, Sami identity.

Dávvet invited duojár Anna-Stina Svakko, who is now running a course for a group of participants who are all creating their own non-binary Gàkti (Sami National Costume).

The first workshop was held in Skien in May, and this weekend we are ready for part two at Samisk his in Oslo! Can’t wait to see all the gàktis taking shape 💕🏳️‍🌈💕

The event is not open for audience, but fragments from the course will be on view in the exhibition «QUEER RESISTANCE MOVEMENTS» that open at Skien Kunstforening on December 9th.

«QUEER RESISTANCE MOVEMENTS» is curated by Heiki Eero Riipinen and Ergi’s Una Mathiesen Gjerde for Skien Kunstforening. The chapter of Dávvet Bruun Solbakk and Garmeres is supported by The Art Council Norway, Sámediggi, and Fritt Ord - tn # # 💕🙏

SHARING MY NEWLY FOUND LOVE FOR GOING TO ART OPENINGS AND TALKING ABOUT ART

Norges første ikke-binære koftekurs har startet – Det var fint å skape et rom hvor man bare kan være seg selv, sier nestleder i Garmeres, Jouvnas Helmine Bruun Arnesen.
