IDPC challenges the political visible and invisible borders that separate people, by connecting them through an artistic performative virtual “exchange”.
Our survey mode “migrations”, which took place from December 2020 to January 2021 is finished! With a participation from 19 countries (from Africa, Asia, America and Europe), this survey is core to a process of open participation leading to a collaborative project. After collecting and analysing the survey results, we are now focusing on the development of communication and sharing strategies for collaboration, exchange and circulation. We invite you to join us from 13 February to the end of March in this new and exciting journey!
We’ve come to conclude the preliminary stages of our first collective launching, where body, horizons, and ways of perceiving, living and creating reality and territory will be protagonists. Despite all the restrictions and mismatches of this particularly complex period in time (a pandemic situation far from being over and its sociopolitical effects), we’ve undertook the challenge to seek for ways to keep connecting, creating and sharing. We are inviting anyone who wants to experiment the collaborative project we’re developing right now, and we want to know from you!
Check our I.D portfolio, so you can take an in-depth look to this upcoming project that will be focused on the narratives, content development and circulation of stage 3 from April 2021 on.
Survey Stats
STAGE 1. Migrations survey
We’re happy to announce the upcoming project and the celebration of our first year as a collective, October 2020.
Co-Founders’ message: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=el_tHlNJ4fk&feature=youtu.be
Launching a survey as a resistance strategy can look a bit counter-intuitive, isn’t it?
The idea is we try to understand those normalized mechanisms of what has been imposed upon us as an” identity” to find ways of transforming our own imaginaries and the connections we form with others.
Help us to build this!

STAGE 0. A map is…
Among other things, the recognition of a defined territory into certain parameters, frontiers, borders…
Mapping realities, possible worlds and ourselves, a collaborative project.

Abdulnur Akyüz
I’m an artist from Mardin (Turkey), based in Beirut (Lebanon).
My passion for Performative Arts started after a workshop with NAHNO and Antakya Performative Collective on April 2019.
With dual heritage from Lebanon and Turkey, my conceptual approach mainly discuss the feelings of belonging (or not) and I consider my work very personal. Also, my art work promotes reflection on social problems such as Statelessness.
“As an artist, your body sometimes becomes your material.” – Abdulnur Akyüz, Daily Star on 16 April 2019.
Mónica Quijano
I’m a Colombian artist from Pasto (Nariño) and the Co-Founder of I.D. Performative Collective, I’m a Fine Arts graduate from Universidad Nacional de Colombia (Bogotá); I have developed a huge passion for Performative Arts discussing the problematic sense of the private-public discourse and the singular personal interactions in dialogue with the cultural (suspectedly not so global as we’re told) world.
From my somewhat marginal experience, I think of Art as a way to build communality through spiritual care for human and nature, focusing on social and educational questions.
I firmly believe Art is meant to let people’s voices to be heard. I’m currently working on the collective performative and public intervention project “FALSO POSIT+VO”, which explores, from my individual experience as a woman, the violent history of my country. I also love drawing, painting, Christ and caregiving.
Let’s keep in touch!
