Their personal artistic research explores possibilities of using the body as an autonomous site of provocation; problematising cis-heteronormative ideals while questioning the deeply rooted myth of masculine desire. S\u00f6ring uses a process of performative writing: rethinking popular narratives by unpacking their own troubled relationship with said ideals and desires within a framework of self-representational body politics, body modification and politics of desire. S\u00f6ring is best known in Gothenburg for their work with their artist duo Status Queer, and their collective CULT of Drag, their free Drag school Initiations, their extensive engagement in engagi ng with, building and providing culture to and by LGBTQIA+ individuals. S\u00f6ring has also worked extensively with SAQMI taking on various roles like: curator, producer, technician and social media manager.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2541&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1788431807149{margin-top: 8px !important;margin-right: 8px !important;margin-bottom: 8px !important;margin-left: 8px !important;border-top-width: 2px !important;border-right-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-left-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 8px !important;padding-right: 8px !important;padding-bottom: 8px !important;padding-left: 8px !important;border-left-style: dotted !important;border-right-style: dotted !important;border-top-style: dotted !important;border-bottom-style: dotted !important;border-color: #EDCE8F !important;border-radius: 2px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Markku Heikkinen<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Markku Heikkinen (born 1966 in Kajaani, Finland) studied sociology and philosophy at the University of Tampere from 1987\u20131992, as well as film directing at the University of Art and Design Helsinki from 1999, graduating in documentary film directing in 2006.
