Working Title at Masambe presents (De)Constructing Gender

Working Title LIVE ART WEEKENDS at Masambe Theatre presents:
(de)Constructing Gender

a dynamic Live Art weekend that delves into the complex layers of gender, identity, and societal norms. Through a bold mix of performances, installation, and interdisciplinary art, this event interrogates how gender ideologies shape and constrain our lived experiences, exploring their profound impact on individuals and communities.

In a country grappling with high rates of gender-based violence and deeply ingrained patriarchal norms, this event offers a space to critique, reflect, and reimagine. By addressing the lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ individuals, the pressures placed on men to suppress vulnerability, and the pervasive inequalities faced by women, (de)Constructing Gender shines a light on the urgent need for dialogue and change.
This weekend is an invitation to unlearn, to question, and to co-create a world where gender is a spectrum, not a constraint. Whether you’re an artist, activist, or curious observer, this is a space to engage, explore, and transform.

Curated by Carin Bester, featuring artists:
Aimee Pullon – Aequitas (Pissing Contest) / Visual Art
Andi Colombo – Seep
Grace Storm Barnes - Un-becoming
Mamello Makhetha – Ore Phelele
Roland du Preez - Haireditary

A short Q&A session with the artists will follow the performances on Thursday 13 March.
