DAI Roaming Assembly #29 / sonsbeek council #3 ~ SEX WORK IS HONEST WORK~ an ongoing invocation convened by sonsbeek20→24

“I would argue that, at this point, “sex worker” is an identity — a political one.” $thotscholarOn invitation of and in collaboration with the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) and Olu Oguibe, sonsbeek20→24 presents the third sonsbeek Council#3: SEX WORK IS HONEST WORK. A two day invocation as a collective study, speaking and broadcasting in order to trace the ways gender, spatial politics, intimate labour and race intersect at the “margins of societies”. It departs from the artist, theorist and curator Olu Oguibe’s public installation and series of gatherings titled SEX WORK IS HONEST WORK. With this project we call attention to the need to unpack the historical denial of sex work as labour and its subsequent present day implications as we examine its complexities in relation to the inequalities and injustices that characterize migrant or indentured labour.This two-day program is an attempt to open up and contextualize the public discourse around gendered, intimate/erotic labour and sex work, on the conjuncture where care, intimacy and money meet. As we try to unlearn the dominant empowerment/exploitation binary that is prevalent in a general discourse around sex work and intimate labour, we look closely at who benefits from this social stigmatization? What should be urgently considered when theorizing and thinking through practices of gendered, sex, intimate work?During this public gathering, we closely look, together with sex and erotic workers, artists, advocates, theorists, thinkers, students and hustlers, at the genealogy of the discourse around sex work and the way it is embedded in savior politics, morality, property relation and capital across borders and geographies.Contributors: Barby Asante, Kamala Kempadoo (digital), Milone Reigman, Maria Scali, Pascale Obolo.
