L’art de Cassils porte sur l’histoire de la violence, de la représentation, de la lutte et de la survie lgbtqi+. Pour Cassils, la performance est une forme de sculpture sociale : partant de l’idée que les corps se forment en relation avec les forces du pouvoir et les attentes sociales, le travail de Cassils explore les contextes historiques pour examiner le moment présent. Le genre devient une sculpture corporelle. Ni le sexe ni l’anatomie n’y sont un destin.Cairn free access
