Film Screening - Amazonia EcoQueer / Border Ecologies - Newcastle Contemporary Art (NCA)

This special screening event, curated by Danilo Barauna, will present moving image works by LGBTQIAPN+ visual artists from the Brazilian Amazon. Explore how the selected works create a network of affects that interfere with the process of creating a decolonial intimacy with the Amazonian rivers and their relationship with people and the cities.

The event is free to attend.

The event has been sponsored by The British Academy International Fellowship.

Dr Danilo Baraúna is a British Academy International Fellow at Newcastle University. His research lies at the intersection of Queer Studies (ecological, decolonial and affective approaches), Artists' Moving Image Theory and Criticism and Latin American Studies, with a particular interest in LGBTQIAPN+ art and cultural production from the Brazilian Amazon.
