Day With(out) Art 2022: BEING & BELONGING
100+ Screenings Worldwide
Day With(out) Art 2022: BEING & BELONGING
For Day With(out) Art 2022, Visual AIDS presented Being & Belonging, a program of seven short videos highlighting under-told stories of HIV and AIDS from the perspective of artists living with HIV across the world.
The program features newly commissioned work by Camila Arce (Argentina), Davina “Dee” Conner and Karin Hayes (USA), Jaewon Kim (South Korea), Clifford Prince King (USA), Santiago Lemus and Camilo Acosta Huntertexas (Colombia), Mikiki (Canada), and Jhoel Zempoalteca and La Jerry (México).
From navigating sex and intimacy to confronting stigma and isolation, Being & Belonging centers the emotional realities of living with HIV today. How does living with HIV shift the ways that a person experiences, asks for, or provides love, support, and belonging? The seven videos are a call for belonging from those that have been stigmatized within their communities or left out of mainstream HIV/AIDS narratives.
Being & Belonging screened in over 140 museums, universities, and arts organizations worldwide beginning December 1, 2022, Day With(out) Art / World AIDS Day. The videos are now available to stream online free of charge at video.visualaids.org.
