Communicator Series highlights queer and trans* performance artists whose practice is situated in-between, troubling the boundaries between poetry, performance, archive, activism, and collective intimacies. We're here for work that is switchy, vers, and language-curious, that teases the edges of form as a poetic strategy of becoming otherwise. Attempts, failure, and works-in-progress encouraged.
