Palina Kasino

As a woman who had to grow up in a very patriarchal environment in a migrant family from Kazakhstan, I experienced strong role-based expectations. Very early, I refused to end as a Christian fundamentalist housewife and be condemned to eternal care work. I know that far too many people still suffer from gender-specific, purely socially constructed rules and discrimination in both psychological and physical ways. Among other things, I am therefore interested in different directions, both artistically and sociopolitical. After moving twice in my childhood, I moved to Cologne for my social science studies. For a change of scenery and an environment in which I can devote myself more intensively to art, I moved to Leipzig in 2021.
