Sürgündeki Trans-Artivist Boginya Von Art: “En Büyük Tehlike Nefretin Normalleşmesidir”

🏳‍🌈Rusya’daki LGBTİ+ karşıtı yasalar, sansür ve siyasi baskılar nedeniyle ülkesini terk etmek zorunda kalan trans sanatçı ve aktivist Boginya Von Art, Türkiye’de LGBTİ+’lara yönelik baskıları değerlendirdi.

🔘 Rusya’da 2013’ten itibaren adım adım artan baskıların, LGBTİ+’ları “tehdit” olarak gösteren ve “aileyi koruma”, “çocukları koruma” söylemleriyle hakları kısıtlayan bir mekanizma yarattığını anlatan Boginya, benzer uygulamaların Türkiye’de de görüldüğünü söyledi.

🔘 “En büyük tehlike nefretin normalleşmesidir” diyen Boginya, devlet eliyle kullanılan nefret söyleminin homofobik ve transfobik kesimlere meşruiyet sağladığını ve zamanla otosansürün yaygınlaştığını belirtti.

🔘 “Haklar kalıcı değildir. On yıllarca süren mücadelelerle kazanılanlar çok kısa sürede kaybedilebilir” diyen Boginya, Türkiye’deki LGBTİ+’lara uluslararası dayanışma mesajı verdi.

🔘 Kendi bedenini “tanık, arşiv ve direniş alanı” olarak tanımlayan Boginya, performans, görsel sanat, film ve kamusal alan müdahaleleriyle çalışmalarını sürdürüyor.

This did not appear from nowhere.

It took a body.
A year.
A ritual.
A wound.
A voice.

Fils d’identité is still becoming.

Fils d’identité — Venice, 9 May 2026

My mouth was covered.My voice was not.

I walked with Fils d’identité during #Biennale del Dissenso — a ritual against erasure, political violence, and the silencing of LGBTQ+ lives.

This body was meant to disappear.But it returns.

As voice.As presence.As protest.

The Italian audio performance is available through the link in my bio.

Lorent sat opposite me.

He spoke. I listened. I remained silent.

Some encounters begin with words. This one began with silence.

Thank you, @lorentsaleh , for becoming part of the work.

Human rights, but make it fashion. by @boginya

Ventotene will stay with me.

I came to the Second European Ventotene Conference for Freedom and Democracy as an artist and speaker — to share my experience, my practice and SILENCE.

A special thank you to Vice-President Pina Picierno @pinapicierno for her words about me and my work. Having LGBTQ+ voices acknowledged in this space meant enormously to me.

Thank you @katiamargolis , @chiarasquarcione and @niko_rt_work for your support, trust and for being part of this experience.

And thank you to everyone who became part of SILENCE.

I came back from Ventotene changed — and grateful. by @boginya
