Forgive Us Our Trespasses

This book is about queering all that claims normativity. It presents materials from an eponymous research and exhibition project that puts at the fore the question of normativity and by and for whom the demands of normativity are made. The project invites deliberation on religious, social, class, national, sexual, disciplinary, and other forms of trespassing and employs varying narratives of trespassing as a means of resistance. By putting our bodies on the line performatively, the project also invites thinking on psychosomatic interferences within certain spaces reserved for “normative” bodies. What role can artists play in the imagination of the abnormal as a method?
