In their sometimes loud and noisy, often soft and dreamy synth pop, the Cologne-based artist and musician Hermes C. Delarber aka Liberty Snake approaches various ways of queer representation, exploring radical vulnerability through newly found physical expression. As a neurodivergent, non-binary trans* person, Hermes speaks up against inequality in the art and music industry and addresses the constant fight against a society that is built upon heteronormative, homo- and transphobic, ableist and racist structures. Together with the photographer Frederike Wetzels, Hermes is founder and chief editor of MY VENUS GOT A PENIS AND MY ADONIS GOT HIS TITS CHOPPED OFF, a print magazine portraying trans* nudity and desire, publishing its first issue this summer.
