“WERKER operates at the intersection of labour, ecofeminism, and the LGBTQ+ movements, advocating for an image critique of daily life to analyze what becomes visible and what remains hidden or silenced in different political contexts. The art collective, initiated by Marc Roig Blesa and Rogier Delfos in Amsterdam in 2009, released ten issues of a publication called WERKER MAGAZINE. Since then, WERKER has explored a variety of media, including installation, performance, video, sound, textile, digital publishing, and has also developed community projects, reading groups, cine-clubs, radio podcasts, and publishing workshops.
Under the name WERKER COLLECTIVE, we engage in producing media from below with students, cultural workers, self-organized unions of domestic workers, undocumented migrants, in support of anti-eviction activists, feminist groups, LGBTQ+ communities, and people with neurological or functional diversities. Through these workshops, WERKER COLLECTIVE weaves an intersectional and transnational network of allies, reactivating oppressed histories, and investigating worker’s solidarity through collaborative artistic practice.”
