Claude Cahun & Marcel Moore created bold, fragmented characters exploring identity and illusion. Their free, provocative art lives on. Today we celebrate these hybrid, playful, unsettling figures — a way to say: we are never just one thing. 📸 Swipe to explore!

🇫🇷🇲🇺/🇬🇧Bilingual Theatre in London @exchangetheatre.bsky.social · 04/06/2025
📸 Claude Cahun, radical artist and queer icon, defied gender, norms, and fascism. Free, unclassifiable, provocative, they made life a manifesto. In our play, they embody strength and freedom. Today, we spotlight this essential, enigmatic figure who still stirs and inspires.

Yesterday, along with Improbable and Projekt Europa, we invited migrant artists & allies to part in a D&D Satellite: What Does Migrant Solidarity Look Like Now - and for Our Future?.
A photomontage comprised of four pictures: 1. Maria Aberg from Projekt Europa, sitting and listening to someone off-screen talk, under a banner that says 'Lion'. 2. Sheets of papers taped to the wall that say: 'WHAT DOES MIGRANT SOLIDARITY LOOK LIKE NOW - And for our future?'. 3. Posters taped to the wall that say 'Wherever it happens is the right place' 'Whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened' 'The law of two feet'. 4. A dozen attendees sit in circles, on the floor and on chairs, having conversations and writing.

« Even now, their story is not widely known and it’s so important to tell it and to resist in our times the rise of the far right and anti-semitism and anti-queerness just as their example showed us. » Many thanks to the BBC for their interview of Lilit Lesser. Full interview: tinyurl.com/bdvk3s5z

« I think it’s very important that a trans and Jewish person was cast in this role. It is a very unique, beautiful, hard and exhausting experience to exist in society at this intersection of marginalised identities, both in Claude’s time and at this moment now. » - L. Lesser tinyurl.com/4u577xru
