Who we are
Teatro en Movimiento Callejerx, founded in Valparaíso in 2016 and based in Barcelona since 2019, is characterized by its multidisciplinary approach, combining performance in public spaces, street theater, action art, and community art with feminist, intersectional, anti-racist, and decolonial perspectives. From our beginnings, we have adopted these approaches to recognize and address the multiple forms of oppression that affect women and sexual minorities, especially those who also face discrimination based on race, class, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Our projects develop artistic and educational initiatives with the participation of migrant, trans, domestic, and sex workers, as well as non-binary people, creating spaces for co-creation to publicly denounce human rights violations and demand justice and reparations.
Our working methodology is feminist, which is reflected in our constant open calls, primarily directed at women and gender non-conforming individuals, and in our collaborative and horizontal creative processes that seek to foster the artistic participation of diverse groups. Furthermore, our feminist, intersectional, anti-racist, and decolonial approach is reflected in all the themes of our works and workshops, using street intervention as a tool for struggle and propaganda, addressing issues such as extractivism, gender violence, and the devastation of nature, and highlighting the disappearance, murder, and imprisonment of women and gender non-conforming individuals who fight to defend the land.
