illustration of Painting on wood of a gender neutral carpenter sawing with bare hands through a pile of wood. When critical knowledge disappears, through political censorship, economic interests or simply through absence, the archive of the future also remains silent. In my Master Class Student final project this gives rise to a position of resistance: How do we defend ourselves against forgetting?

illustration of ‘The Undocumented Archive of Queer Craftsmanship: Today was yesterday is tomorrow’ highlights the erasure of queer identities in the history of carpentery with focus on Germany. Gaps in archives do not mean these lives never existed–history is selectively recorded and only reveils fragments of realities.

Profile

EL BOUM is Berlin based illustrator Jasmina El Bouamraoui. Being a graduate at the Berlin University of the Arts and the Weißensee Academy of Art Berlin, their work combines bright colors, narrative figurative elements, and address historical and contemporary forms of erasure, particularly where gendered assumptions influence craft, labor, sports and the stories told about them. She creates visual archives that counter omission, reframe overlooked perspectives, and open spaces for imagining future narratives. Their multidisciplinary practice ranges from illustration and painting to large-scale works on wood, where materiality, surface, and craft processes play a central role.
