Queereeoké

Group portrait of six people on a stage, staged like a show finale. The people wear striking costumes, makeup, and wigs in bold colors, including glitter, lace and a bright green, sculpted hairstyle. Some people kneel or sit in the foreground while others stand behind them. The poses are confident, playful, and expressive. Purple stage lighting enhances the theatrical, queer aesthetic of the scene.

Queereeoké is a collective of queer artists from various disciplines such as drag, performance, singing and dance, who are self-taught in many skills. In the spirit of DIY culture, Queereeoké asserts an understanding of art as a queer life practice far removed from elitist, perfection-seeking concepts of art. Karaoke, as the basis of their joint artistic practice, unites many of the influences that have shaped the artists and enables the team to combine leisure activities and club culture with activist processes. Queereeoké is a space created by the queer community for the queer community and its allies: the Queereeoké team develops ways of developing and implementing artistic practices that are free of discrimination.
