Venue: Courtyard
Tickets available from 4 July

Heaven Unfolded brings together a selection of experimental video works concerned with both historical and ongoing discrimination against queer people and potential liberatory futures. The event begins with and departs from Luiz Roque’s dystopian sci-fi video HEAVEN (2016). In the year 2080 in Brazil, a virus spread through saliva has been mutating into a much more aggressive form that seems to target transgender people who take hormones approved by the Secretary of Health. The work is a speculative analogy that alludes to the ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic and healthcare inequities along class and gender lines.
