SEXWORK IS HONEST WORK | Saturday

Roaming Assembly#29 presents Sonsbeek Council#3 ~ SEXWORK IS HONEST WORK ~ an ongoing invocation convened by sonsbeek20→24.

On invitation of and in collaboration with the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) and Olu Oguibe, sonsbeek20→24 presents the third sonsbeek Council#3: SEX WORK IS HONEST WORK. A two day collective study, speaking and broadcasting in order to trace the ways gender, spatial politics, intimate labour and race intersect at the “margins of societies”. It departs from the artist, theorist and curator Olu Oguibe’s public installation and series of gatherings titled SEX WORK IS HONEST WORK. With this project we call attention to the need to unpack the historical denial of sex work as labour and its subsequent present day implications as we examine its complexities in relation to the inequalities and injustices that characterize migrant or indentured labour.

With contributions by: Barby Asante, Dina de Riquet-Bons, Hella Dee, Ola Hassanain, Heaux History, Kamala Kempadoo (digital), Simone Lagrand, Quirine Lengkeek, Pascale Obolo, Olu Oguibe, Milone Reigman, Thot Scholar & Mavi Veloso.
