Descripción
Hello, my name is Diren.
I am a queer activist, vegetarian, performance artist and writer from Istanbul, living & working in Berlin as a full-time artist.
Diversity and inclusion are important factors for me and i expect an equal enviroment
I believe i have a good capacity of empathy and understanding the people around me and situations, i am easy to talk and share with. :)
During my volunteer work I can do many different jobs, cleaning, harvesting, preparing food, gardening or any kind of work... :) I especially want to build ecological structures and improve myself in permaculture and animal healthcare. I love all animals and I can easily establish a great friendship with nearly all the non-human individuals.
It is ideal for me to work a maximum of about 20-25 hours a week (and a maximum of 5 hours a day). I am open to compromise if more work is needed, but the time I spent alone in nature and my daily meditation is very important to me too.
I am a vegetarian for 10+ years, you can eat what you want, no worries.

My short bio:
Diren Demir (Istanbul, 1997) is an interdisciplinary artist and independent curator. Demir’s work seeks transformative solutions to the challenges posed by patriarchal and authoritarian regimes. Demir’s installations and performances frequently deal with revelation and the body-power relationship as a site of conflict. Demir focuses on transformational activism, participatory practices and developing new models of resistance in their artworks. Demir’s work includes queer themes, using their own body to challenge stereotypical gender positions and de-gender memories of place and the city by referring to LGBTIQ+ history in their articles, seminars and workshops. In 2019, their compilation titled “A Night of June: A Biographical Analysis of the Stonewall Revolution” was published. In August 2022, their new poetry and illustration book “Hail to the Fallen” took its place in bookstores. Demir has curated more than 30 guerrilla exhibitions on streets and rural areas, putting the accessibility of art at the forefront, as well as in places such as Akbank Art and Gazhane Museum. Their works and projects were exhibited in many different countries such as Estonia, Turkey, Serbia, the Netherlands, Germany, India…
