Aruanã Rosa is an interdisciplinary researcher and artist from Brazil. His work is inspired by Brazilian queer and Black social movements and theorists. During East Pride, he will present both a lecture and a photographic exhibition, drawing on his own experiences of migration and of living as a racialised and queer person.

The event is a collaboration between the Forum for Gender Studies and Equality at Linköping University and East Pride – the Pride festival in Norrköping.

The lecture will be held in English. No registration is required.

The exhibition will be on display from 25 May to 5 June at Kåkenhus.
