Chandler Smith – HXSSY

HXSSY: Queer SW Arts & Culture is an arts collective of sorts and an homage to the simultaneous politics and poetics of queer and trans* wh*res. Our current projects include founding a queer sex worker art house in de Wallen & a matinee series for queer sex workers at the infamous Casa Rosso Theatre. HXSSY is organized by Mercy St. J, Anna Torres, and Adanya Dunn.

Mercy St.J (they/them) is the founder of HXSSY, a FSSW, dominatrix, writer, photographer, community organizer. Interested in all things debaucherous, raunchy, kinky, & profane they see whoring as both a creative art form and important political tool to upturn systems that oppress queers, trans folks, and sex workers. St.J lives in Berlin & Amsterdam.
