Sold Out

Some of the pieces were already sold at the live auction during the Fairies For Freedom Midsummernight's Eve. These are marked as Sold Out in the title.

We go ALLOUT

In more than 79 countries around the world, lesbian, gay, transgendered and bisexual people live in that darkness. They are persecuted, imprisoned, humiliated and tortured, their only crime being their expression of the act of love.

ALLOUT is an international organization that focusses on changing the policy, education and awareness of LGBT rights. Through video testimonials, flash mobs, petitions and other creative content they aim to start provocative conversations to alter the public opinion.

All benefits of the auctioned pieces go directly to ALLOUT.

Lightness

In an age where everyone is affected by the weight of society, the overbearing fears of the economy and the heavy hand of government, 'lightness' is the way forward. Let go of the material and celebrate the ethereal with 11 weeks of 'lightness'. Each week Mediamatic invites a new artist to question the meaning of 'lightness'. Fairies For Freedom was part of Martin Butler's week of 'Lightnes'. Go here to see the full program.
