Criptonite
Accomplice
Criptonite is a crip-queer performance project founded in 2020 by Nina Mühlemann and Edwin Ramirez. In their projects they center the work of disabled artists, provide opportunities for disabled people who want to get into the arts and use access as an aesthetic. Their shows tell stories about slow animals, talk about Switzerland’s history with eugenics and use pleasure as a form of resistance. Their most recent piece, Creature Comforts, was shown at Tanzhaus Zürich in October 2023. Criptonite receives four-year funding from the City of Zurich from 2024-2028..
