BRUJAS World

This episode is of the workshop Seize Bellevue, recorded on June 9, 2018 at Performance Space New York to conclude Brujas’ three week exhibition and residency. Here we will discuss psychiatry as ideology and hold space for an informed and nuanced conversation on “mental health”. Seize Bellevue, inspired by Michel Foucault’s The Birth Of The Clinic, the occupation of Lincoln Hospital by the Young Lords in 1970, peer support models of addressing crisis, and the real life experiences of BRUJAS and their families navigating the mental health system. The line consists of hand made and dyed designer clothes and a zine calling for a compassionate and radical reconception of one of the more insidious carceral institutions – the pharmaceutical industry and our mental health crisis system. Consisting of both streetwear garments including hoodies, unisex boxers, crop-tops and gym wear, sewn and dyed ethically in California, as well as colorful fleece and muslin hospital gowns inspired by victorian-era hysteria with multiple styling options including detachable hoodies and sleeves. Seize Bellevue is “sick-wear for contemporary rebel youth.” BRUJAS World is brought to you by: mask.fm (http://mask.fm), a podcast network from Mask Magazine.
