SUMMARY:DiverseWorks on Wednesdays
DESCRIPTION:Koomah and Stephanie Saint Sanchez Present an Evening of Queer Voices\n1. Iris and Brennan:  Iris and Brennan are practitioners of Brazilian Jiujitsu with different transmasculine identities. They will present a movement performance executed through grappling to display a vigorous mutual navigation of masculinity with versatility in the choreographed struggle. \n2. Momotaro featuring Koomah:  Momotaro collaborates with Koomah to present a performance about race\, culture\, belief\, tradition\, and the act of transition. \n3. Koomah as Mallé FeMallé:  In the performance Dolls\, Mallé FeMallé takes the audience on a sexy\, dark adventure – a burlesque unlike any you may have seen before…with a sideshow twist. Ultimately leaving the audience exhilarated\, shocked\, and guessing which body parts were fake (if any!) and which were real. Dolls has been featured in New Orleans Queerlesque! and the 2012 Houston Fringe Festival’s Anything Goes weekend. \n4. Leenah Jimenez will be presenting her work with calligraphy and glass engraving. \n5. Monica Roberts:  Writer and award-winning activist Monica Roberts will speak about her writing and blogging work as well as share some poetry. \n6. define:TraNsition: Photographer Jan Johnson and poet Boston Davis Bostian discuss their new project\, define:TraNsition\, a collection of black and white portrait photographs blended with poetry to create a work of “poetography” illustrating everyday trans*beautiful individuals.  www.definetransition.com \nKoomah is an intersex-bodied and trans-identified multidisciplinary artist in Houston\, Texas. Koomah’s art is usually abstract in nature and their performance covers an eclectic range from performance art\, drag\, queer burlesque & cabaret\, genderfucking sideshow acts\, and some educational acts centering around issues of gender\, sexuality\, and gender variant identities/expressions. \nRaised in Beaumont\, corrupted in Houston\, Stephanie Saint Sanchez is a by-any-means-necessary media artist\, moviemaker\, and instigator. As founder of La Chicana Laundry Pictures\, she has made over 25 award-winning\, genre-bending shorts. She also started the Senorita Cinema film festival\, the only all Latina Film Festival in Texas. She is a recipient of a S.W.A.M.P. Emerging Filmmakers Fellowship\, The Idea Fund\, and Lawndale Artist Studio Program. \nimage: Koomah as Mallé FeMallé

SUMMARY:DiverseWorks on Wednesdays: Sound Work by Madsen Minax
DESCRIPTION:Sound Work by Madsen Minax \nFor this DWOW Madsen will perform “light wake (as opposed to heavy wave)” music about leaving and being left. \nMinax was born and raised in rural Northern Michigan and received a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2005 and an MFA from Northwestern University in 2012. Currently\, Minax is a Core Fellow at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, TX and a member of the DiverseWorks Artist Board. For more information about Minax\, visit his web site. \nMadsen makes media-based works drawing upon notions of be/longing and the politics of dis/identification and desire. He approaches the medium through interests in science fiction\, fantasy\, dreams\, erotics\, and social justice to address a series of binaries: the slippage between erotics and violence\, consent and violation\, youth and adult\, male and female\, attraction and repulsion\, inception and termination. \n
