TENDER CITY: THE SILENT SLOW DANCE PROJECT is a socially engaged performance and video installation that invites queer men to participate in silent, consensual slow dances in public urban spaces.
The project explores tenderness, male intimacy, and the reclamation of public space—particularly in environments historically shaped by hetero-patriarchal, capitalist design.
