このコンテンツについて

S.W.E.A.T. >>sex/uality. work. extraction. art. theatr/ics.<< is a series of conversations about performance and performativity of the sexual and sexualized body at work—where work is broadly defined as the labour of survival, the labour of care, creativity, and capital-A-Art. How exactly do we define our work and how does that work entangle and circumscribe our sexual identities, our creative lives and the ways in which we provide care? How do we perform both tasks and identities within the framework of that which we consider work? My hope is that these conversations are a means to speak between intersectionalities by anchoring through our always already sexualized bodies, our working bodies, our artistic bodies and our performative bodies. photos by Onsoh Studios and Claudia Brijbag please support S.W.E.A.T. on my patreon page https://www.patreon.com/madkate S.W.E.A.T. hostex Mad Kate is a Berlin-based electronic artist, vocalist, and producer who fuses sound, performance, and activism into a singular, immersive experience. Rooted in a background of writing and queer feminist, sex-positive performance art, Mad Kate weaves together interviews, field recordings, and vocal manipulations with raw, pulsating synthesizers to explore the porous borders between bodies, identities, and geographies. With a sonic language shaped by storytelling and embodied experience, Mad Kate’s compositions interrogate the personal as a lens for understanding collective realities—how power structures inscribe themselves onto intimacy, how movement across borders reshapes identity, and how world-building through imagination disrupts existing narratives. Whether through hypnotic, shape-shifting club compositions or experimental soundscapes, their work pulses with a deep commitment to sonic activism, carving out space for new forms of relationality and resistance. Mad Kate’s performances are immersive and confrontational, collapsing the boundary between artist and audience, body and machine. Their sonic explorations have been featured in venues and festivals across Europe, where they continue to push the boundaries of electronic music as a site of both political critique and radical pleasure.All rights reserved アート

  • S4E6 S.W.E.A.T. with Liz Rosenfeld
    2025/06/10
    This month's conversation with with transdisciplinary artist Liz Rosenfeld. Liz Rosenfeld is an NYC-born, Berlin-based transdisciplinary artist who works with film/video, performance, drawings and experimental writing practice. Liz addresses the sustainability of emotional and political ecologies, cruising methodologies, and past and future histories regarding the ways in which memory is queered. Their work deals with flesh as a non-binary collaborative material, specifically focusing on the potentiality of physical abundance and excess, approaching questions regarding the responsibility and privilege of taking up space and how queer ontologies are grounded in variant hypocritical desire(s). Their work has been shown internationally in film festivals, museums and galleries, and their film White Sands Crystal Foxes was nominated for Best Experimental Short Film at the Berlinale’s 2022 Teddy Awards. Liz was also one of the nominated artists for the ANTI –Contemporary Art Festival’s 2022 Shortlist Live Award, and their short films are represented by Video Data Bank and LUX Moving Image. They are currently on tour with their new book, Crossings: Creative Ecologies of Cruising, out on Rutgers University Press and co-written with Dr. Joao Florencio.

How exactly do we define our work and how does that work entangle and circumscribe our sexual identities, our racialized bodies, our creative lives and the ways in which we provide care? How do we perform both tasks and identities within the framework of that which we consider work? These conversations are a means to speak between intersectionalities by anchoring through our (always, already, and ever pervasive) sexualized and racialized bodies, our working bodies, our artistic bodies and our performative bodies. I hope that they contribute to dialogues which normalize sex work as work, and all work as deserving of respect, healthy conditions, and a living wage.

Their explorations of borders between/within bodies, audibility, consent, proximity, and touch as political practice have brought them to theaters, communes, technomansions, prisons, dungeons, squats and galleries around the world.

  • S4E5 S.W.E.A.T. with Ahmad Badawy
    2025/05/13
    This month’s conversation is with activist, writer, and engineer Ahmad Badawy. I met Ahmad at the protest encampment in front of the German parliament, where we were both calling attention to Germany’s complicity in the ongoing genocide in Gaza. In the middle of a bitter Berlin winter, Ahmad’s warmth and clarity stood out—his presence at the camp was not only political, but deeply personal, grounded in a long history of activism. We first connected when I shared my interest in organizing freelance workers. Ahmad responded with encouragement, sharing insights from his own experience and reminding me that movements often begin with simple, one-to-one conversations. We recorded this episode on the eve of the Unkurzbar demonstration, during which pro-Palestinian activists were forcibly separated from the rest of the march. It’s a moment that speaks volumes about the urgency of solidarity—and about Ahmad’s continued commitment to human rights. Originally from Egypt, Ahmad was deeply involved in the 2011 revolution and in grassroots labor organizing. He was imprisoned for four years in a maximum-security prison for carrying a sign at a protest that read, “No to the constitutional amendments,” opposing legislation that would have allowed President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to remain in power indefinitely. During his detention, he undertook a hunger strike to protest being held without trial. Ahmad has published widely on politics and resistance, and is a contributor to We Were There: Liberal Young Voices from the Egyptian Revolution. In this conversation, we discuss his journey from Cairo to Berlin, the political lessons he’s carried across borders, and his vision for building inclusive, intersectional movements rooted in universal human rights.

  • S4E4 S.W.E.A.T. with Kim Ye
    2025/04/08
    This month's edition of S.W.E.A.T. with Mad Kate features multidisciplinary artist Kim Ye. Kim Ye is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses performance, video, installation, text, and social engagement. Inserting herself into popular cultural forms, Ye interrogates gendered constructs shaping perceptions of power, labor, and taboo. Presenting bodies as both sites of domination and liberation, her work describes the entanglement between private desire and fantasy, and public discourse and ideology. Through shifting performance contexts, she reinterprets the forces that enforce and reproduce normativity. In 2023-2024, Ye was a Mellon Arts Fellow at Stanford University’s Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity, and a California Arts Council Creative Corps Fellow. Her work has been funded by the California Arts Council (USA), The National Endowment for the Arts (USA), Foundation for Contemporary Art (USA), Mellon Foundation (USA), and The Australia Council for the Arts (Australia). Her work has been presented at The Getty, MOCA, Guggenheim Gallery, Wattis Institute, Hammer Museum, Banff Center for Arts, Material Art Fair, and Frieze Film Seoul, among others. Ye received her MFA from UCLA in 2012, and was a full-time visiting faculty in the Photography & Media program at CalArts from 2022-2025. Ye has worked professionally as a dominatrix since 2011, and has serves as Co-director of Sex Workers Outreach Project Los Angeles (SWOPLA since 2019). photo: Louisa Fang LINKS! kimye.com instagram.com/kimyekimyekimye instagram.com/swopla swoplosangeles.org https://www.smingsming.com/products/promomme-a-sex-workers-guide-to-parenting
