Ghost Bike is a community-centered performance project that examines the bicycle as a queer expression of vulnerability, an anti-capitalist symbol of freedom, and a powerful tool for climate, transportation, and social justice. The project will unfold over several years in various iterations, from pop-up performances to public promenades.
Our first public iteration took place in October 2021 in Prospect Park:
Created and led by Jem Pickard and Jackie Rivera.
Story share facilitated by Jenny Hipscher.
Performances by Munira Ahmed, Ras Bad, Erin Boyd, Jenny Hipscher, Amy Liou, Julian Socha, and Camille Trust.
Featuring songs from the Resistance Revival Chorus.
