dayna ash : haven for artists

Sexual freedom in the Middle East is still a pipe dream. However, Dayna Ash, author, performance artist and founder of the inclusive art house Haven for Artists, is pursuing it tirelessly.

What’s it like to make queer art in an environment in which you can’t live your sexual orientation out in the open? The short answer is that it’s extremely difficult. The long answer can’t be summed up in a few lines. That’s why artist, writer and cultural activist Dayna Ash is coming to explain. At Passa Porta she will talk about her experiences as a queer artist in Lebanon. article 534 Lebanon is one of the most progressive countries in the Middle East. And yet article 534 of the Lebanese Penal Code makes it possible to prosecute people on the grounds of their sexual orientation. It can be quite a culture shock when moving from LA to Beirut, from a rather loose city where anything goes to a city where intolerance towards otherness is the norm. safe space Poet, performance artist and activist Dayna Ash moved to Beirut at the age of 16. In 2007 she travelled from America to Lebanon. Four years later, still barely 20, Ash founded Haven for Artists in the Lebanese capital. This art house is a safe space, a refuge where artists of all denominations and orientations can express themselves freely. queer art In the context of SLam Our World, a KVS project that combines wordcraft and theatre, Dayna Ash will spend a month in Brussels. In the run-up to SLOW#5, which stands in the sign of Queer Courage, Passa Porta has invited Ash to share her experience as a queer artist in Lebanon.
