Gender and Queerness within artistic performances
In today’s patriarchal and heteronormative society, we need to start questioning how traditional gender norms have been constructed into a limiting binary category.
However, as we see with Drag and Queer artistry in general, there are always tools and performances that provide us with the tools to question social norms imposed onto us from birth. We all have the ability to step outside the category of “woman” and “man” through the power of queerness. Indeed, the latter is not only a term used to discuss non-heterosexual relationships but it is also an umbrella term for all identities that do not fit into what is expected of them by society.
