What one could generally say about Stav B, is that she is an Athens-born, London-based performer, artist, photographer and activist, involved in several arts and activist initiatives. However, to me, she is a multicabaret extravaganza who made us all kiki at the 5th QueerBeograd opening night!
Charismatic, flamboyant, extravagant even at breakfast early in the morning, inquisitive and curious, sensitive and strong, passionate, loquacious, full –on fast, over the top, loud and proud, positive and energetic, manly and womanly, funny and serious , beautiful and fierce… combative… both in her art /activism and life.

Jet Moon... hmmm… how to present her?
How to present someone, whom whenever I watch perform, I’m either left speechless, or I start applauding ecstatically, or screaming with joy, at the same time admiring her incredible courage, her immaculately balanced cutting edge and laconically wise act - a genial performance of her perfectly outlined politics?
Well now, imagine all this packed up in a decent noir sexuality of a Victoria Lake, at the same time coated with a hardcore/trash/50s diva erotic icing a la Bettie Page. Mmm…I will tell you this as well, she is someone who has empowered me even more in my belief in the good old: "I love looking like a slut, and thinking like a politically engaged woman."

And so it happened, the 11th October. However, it didn’t just happen, passing inconspicuously, just like another dull day in the chain of indistinguishable days - this 11th October was significant, unique, marked by the tradition of antifascism, resistance and opposition.
Although the context surrounding the entire day, creating an odd and unpleasant atmosphere had been known in advance, and could this time have brought about more severe incidents and violence (more severe in proportion to those that happened at the antifa march in Novi Sad in October last year), fortunately, there weren’t any.

 Dear friends,
On September 24th, the first Queer Sarajevo Festival was opened.
The opening started with a magnificent exhibition at the Academy of Arts. The turnout was great, it was so genuine and touching at the same time.
There were more than 300 people at the opening, and their sexual orientation was of no relevance, as well as their religion or their sex and gender. The most important thing was that they were there to support a great event, a fabulous festival, wonderful people. Art, joy, life, freedom…

 As someone of you already knows...last week end took place in Belgrade (Serbia), the 5th QueerBeograde Festival and me, Horror and Sally Cellophane from Pornflakes Queer Crew went there to participate.
We arrived late on friday, thanx to some fuckin' italian delay with trains, after a night changing trains in lost villages in austria to get there.
At 10 pm we were waiting for the people of the organization to take us to the club where i had to play music and Horror and Sally would have perform.
