QUEER SKIN! A Celebration of Queer Art in Berlin

Berlin! #SaveTheDate – 26.10.2024! KOTTILESBEN is a vibrant new queer art collective emerging from the heart of Berlin, committed to amplifying the voices of queer artists and making their creations accessible to a wider audience. This dynamic group, encompassing a diverse range of talents including painters, marketing experts, photographers, performance artists, activists, and musicians, aims to harness the power of art as a means to catalyze social change and enhance queer visibility.

QUEER SKIN – A Dive into Queer Identities

One of KOTTILESBEN’s flagship events is the highly anticipated exhibition and runway show titled QUEER SKIN. This innovative showcase delves deep into queer identities, challenging perceptions of bodies and beauty, exploring the complex narratives that exist beyond conventional standards. Visitors are invited to engage with significant themes such as body transformation, external labelling, intimacy, and a spirited rebellion against normative conceptions of beauty.

This event is a powerful statement on the resilience and beauty of the queer community. This event will highlight Berlin’s thriving art scene and create attention for conversations around identity, beauty, and diversity. KOTTILESBEN aims at creating visibility for queer artists.
