THIS LUKEWARM WORLD

With Noor Boiten
𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗟𝗨𝗞𝗘𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗠 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗟𝗗 | Noor Boiten | Finissage 📌 Closing event Thursday, 11 June, 19:00, CAV Multimedia, Bucharest, Biserica Enei street 16 📅 28.05.2026 – 11.06.2026 We gladly invite you to the closing event of Noor Boiten's solo show next week, facilitated through Bucharest AiR! -------- This Lukewarm World takes on the shape of a re-examination of the contemporary 'monstrous' through the lens of Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein, whose composite body can be understood as a metaphor for contemporary queer and trans* existence. Trans* and queer communities serve as popular scapegoats for right-wing media and conservative politics. The trans body is often described as 'monstrous' and 'unnatural', failing to comply with heteronormative desires and traditional forms of kinship. But adopting the 'monstrous', therefore becoming hybrid, becomes the rejection of definition, becoming something more than what was intended by the structures that created us. This act of self-construction is framed as a threat to the established order, destroying established structures through failure of compliance. This failure could be a deliberate one, shattering hegemonic frameworks one at a time. The 'monstrous', in this case, becomes extra-ordinary, providing strength and resilience.

Tell us about CAV.

CAV - Center for Visual Multimedia Arts, a space managed by the Union of Visual Artists, a creative environment that encourages and promotes the work of young artists. Learn the story of the VAC from them: "The story of the Center for Visual Multimedia Arts has several chapters, but ours begins in the summer of 2018. Our activity (Lucian Hrisav, Ioana Marșic, Radu Pandele) started with a solo show of Ioana Marșic in July 2018, when we started to manage the VMC. Over time, the Center for Multimedia Visual Arts has hosted complex curatorial programs that have documented and presented a particular direction in emerging art. It is a necessary space due to its non-commercial nature. Invited artists can present critical, provocative, noncoformist projects because they are not limited by the demands/whims of the market."
