Gender Politics & Feminist Theories in Performance

This course investigates how performance intersects with gender politics, feminist theory, and activism. Artists engage with key feminist and queer thinkers while exploring performance as a tool to challenge power, identity, and representation.

Through analysis and creative practice, the course examines topics like embodiment, intersectionality, queer and trans performance, and decolonial feminist strategies. Artists develop their own feminist-informed work, discovering how performance can resist dominant narratives and imagine new futures.
