Instagram Conversations about counter-narratives
This project was awarded the 2021 Drempelprijs for Autonomous Practices.
Conversations about Counter-narratives is a workshop developed from a political science research analysing homophobic discourse in Lithuanian online spaces. In the workshop participants learn how homphobic discourse is formed and then practice ways to mitigate through drawings and collages. This allows the scientific research reach wider audiences and collectively think of counter-narratives.
The outcomes of the workshops are collected in an online database, and are presented as tools and methods in occupying public space. This allows the outcomes to live beyond the enclosed space of the workshop, and potentially exist in public spaces.
