3rd Language is a Chicago-based collective of artists and thinkers exploring and embracing difference, otherness and transgression. We are interested in a Queerness that emphasizes ambivalences, shifting boundaries and re-imagined social constructions. It is through a collaborative, non-hierarchical and malleable practice that we create the venue for shifting identities. Through creation, publication and curation we reflect our community - a community defined outside fixed categories of identity. Our mission is to foster inclusive spaces for Queer discourse, action and change. We support the development, sharing, and critique of contemporary work by emerging artists.
In an effort to support and share the incredible creative work done by queer individuals, 3rd Language created a Queer Zine Distro. Queer zine- and book-makers have the opportunity to consign their work with us, which we will promote and distribute. Artists receive 100% of their profits.
