350

Between 2023 and 2024, at least 350 trans and nonbinary people were killed all around the world. The official number changes depending on the source, and it's impossible to know it exactly. AnimaeNoctis decided to use this accurate list as a reference for their performance.

Silvia and Massimo are standing naked. Their bodies are covered in an aggressive handmade twine web. In front of them on the ground there are 350 cards in regular rows. Every card is handwritten by the performers themselves and has a little hook. On the wall there is an handwritten banner with this writing: «In 2024, 350 trans people were killed. Know their names». Each card has the name and nationality of a transgender victim. When the name is missing, the performers wrote N.N.

Silvia and Massimo start taking the cards one by one, slowly, and hang them to each other's web via the hook. Before hanging the card, they read the name of the victim or the initials N.N. The whole action lasts about 3 hours. At the end the 2 bodies are covered in cards and the nudity almost disappears: 175 cards per person.

This performance took place at Performance Art Salon at Ostavinska, in Belgrade on November 23, 2025.
