\u201cThe stories I tell demonstrate the constructed nature of gender as a social phenomenon, rather than a biological imperative\u201d - Kris Grey<\/strong> is a New York City based gender-queer artist whose cultural work includes curatorial projects, performance, writing, and studio production. They perform, teach, and exhibit work internationally. In addition to their individual practice, Grey collaborates with Maya Ciarrocchi under the moniker Gender\/Power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Body Dialectics<\/strong> is a performance that Rijeka audience will be able to see this Thursday, May 17th at 8 pm in Filodrammatica, Korzo 28<\/strong>, as part of this year's Smoqua, festival of queer and feminist culture in Rijeka. It is an evolving performance piece based on their personal experiences of navigating a binary world as a gender-queer person with a transgender body. Because their identity is somewhere in between male and female, they fall outside of that binary altogether. They find itself at odds with the social organization of the world and the systems of power that seek to control our bodies. Gender differentiation based on male\/female binary touches all of our lives, resulting in inequality and human rights violations. It informs which bathrooms we use, what sports programs we are able to participate in, and what kind of employment we seek. The dominant narrative of trans experience conforms to this false binary by insisting that \u201ctransition\u201d is about going from one static binary gender to another. Grey\u2019s trans experience, however, is not about conforming to a binary but rather about crafting a queer body with which to challenge the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
