In einer Multiformat-Veranstaltung mit Workshops und Lecture Performances wurden die Ergebnisse der künstlerischen Forschung im Rahmen des Projekts Smashing Wor(l)ds präsentiert. Im Mittelpunkt stand die künstlerische Arbeit mit Vokabularen des Widerstands, aus queeren und antirassistischen Perspektiven - rund um Sprache, Mode, Übersetzung und vieles mehr.
Smashing Wor(l)ds - Summercamp ist ein Zusammentreffen der österreichischen Partnerorganisationen Afro Rainbow Austria [ARA], Queer Base, Silent University Graz und den Studierenden des Studio for Post-Conceptual Art Practices [PCAP] an der Akademie der bildenden Künste.

The COVID-19 pandemic has redefined public space. Many citizens disappeared from public space, and in the meantime this space was also abused by the right-wing mob. On the other hand, by regulating the use of public space, the state has left the people to themselves, to their traumatic past, their precarious present and their self-isolation. Many are made invisible. We will deal with these issues, in the center and on the periphery of the city.
