Create Your Own Universe: A Queer World-Building Workshop
Mira Brunner
Inspired by the tactile artwork The Known Universe, featured in Beneath the Turning Sky, this hands-on workshop invites participants to collaboratively imagine and create their own universe through a queer-affirmative lens. Drawing from the artwork’s exploration of belonging, materiality, labour, and our relationship with the world around us, participants will use personal objects, storytelling, and collective making to build worlds that centre care, joy, identity, and community.
Participants are required to bring a small object that represents their sense of self, home, or belonging. The object should be no bigger than the palm of your hand. Facilitated by Mira Brunner, the artists behind the piece, this workshop offers a playful and creative space to reimagine the worlds we inhabit and the futures we wish to create.
