**Exhibition turned performance**
In this exhibition visitors transform themselves from viewers to participants through costumes and masks representing beloved archetypes from across our LGBTQ+ communities. Through ceremonial play, participants will explore, celebrate and connect with each other through these larger-than-life characters. They are however not alone… with the giant watchful Nordic eye of the judgement ever present ready to save.exe this intimate moment in the digital ether.
Ceremony on opening night to be facilitated by drag creations Sinfleuncer ( Kolbrún Inga Söring) and The Meatbaby ( Sam Message).
**Photographs**
Alongside self-transformation, ritual and social practice the exhibition will feature a series of photographs from PEEK!’s photoshoots using drag to disrupt everyday life.
**Workshops**
The exhibition will also be activated by a programme in collaboration with local initiative Kiss My ARS.
Keep your eyes peeled for more details on that coming soon!
