Percy Bertolini - video interview

https://www.youtube.com/embed/4D3C-Ny848M

The fourth episode of the second season of Queer Graphics is dedicated to Percy Bertolini. The main themes addressed during the interview are eco-queer collapse, dance as a form of liberation, and the struggle against different forms of normativity.

In 2021, Bertolini published Da Sola for Diabolo Edizioni, their first graphic novel. The work is set in a dystopian city and tells the story of the protagonist's escape from a psychiatric hospital. Their liberation from various forms of normativity is achieved through dance and through the words of Vaslav Nijinsky.

Alice Parrinello and Alberica Bazzoni have interviewed Percy Bertolini in their home.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

Queer Graphics has been created thanks to PER funding from TORCH, the Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities of the University of Oxford. The video has been produced and subtitled by SMK Factory.
