Makeout

MAKEOUT is a project on gender, sexuality and the peculiarities of their manifestations. This is what we are interested in and what certainly needs more information. We discuss taboo topics, share experiences and encourage others to join. We collect and archive the history of the LGBTQ life in Belarus, document personal experiences of self-identification, create a space where we can be ourselves. We don't need a ghetto or intervention. We are not “close”, we are here. MAKEOUT is a fully feminist project, because we understand that the conventional binarity creates a hierarchys and is always the basis for discrimination. In order to get rid of common practices of exclusion, we transform the cultural field and create space for our lives. Information on the website MAKEOUT is available in two languages, Belarusian and Russian.
