Opening Night Party – Intersections: A Day in the Life of Radical Visibility
Join us for the Opening Night Party of Intersections – A Day in the Life of Radical Visibility, an immersive exhibition and participatory installation celebrating LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent voices through photography, storytelling, and shared space.
Collective Artist Bio
This exhibition brings together a collective of LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent artists whose creative practices are rooted in radical visibility, lived experience, and emotional truth. Their work spans photography, installation, storytelling, and personal reflection—each lens offering a unique path toward collective healing.
Lucie Kirchnerová is a personal branding photographer and strategist whose ADHD diagnosis redefined her journey. She empowers women to show up vulnerably and authentically in front of the camera.
Madalena BC Casaca is a Lisbon-based documentary photographer and writer. Living with schizoaffective and bipolar disorder, her work dives deep into the emotional landscapes of survival and honesty.
Ginny Evans-Pollard (aka Queen Queerlysh) is a producer, performer, curator, and installation artist behind Empauher. Her work bridges identity, queerness, and mental health through participatory arts.
Myriam Lima is a Lisbon-based freelance photographer who captures the natural, unposed moments of life in action—focusing on realness, spontaneity, and presence.
Together, they create space for connection, resistance, and visibility through real, raw storytelling.
