subRosa produces artworks, activist campaigns and projects, publications, media interventions, and public forums that make visible the effects of the interconnections of technology, gender, and difference; feminism and global capital; new bio and medical technologies and women's health; and the changed conditions of labor and reproduction for women in the integrated circuit.

subRosa est une cellule cyberféministe, qui s’offre comme lieu de rassemblement pour des chercheurs qui se consacrent á la recherche dans l’art, l’activisme, et la politique pour analyser et critiquer les effets et les interactions das nouveaux moyens de communication et des biotechnologies sur le corps, la vie et le travail des femmes.
subRosa produit des oevres d’art, initie des campagnes, et crée des projets pour lutter et intervenir dans les médias et les espaces publics afin de rendre visible les effets des interconnections entre technologie, genre et différences…et de la même façon entre le féminisme et le capitalisme mondial pour mettre en lumiere les effets des nouvelles téchnologies médicales sur la santé des femmes…pour prendre la mesure des changements survenus dans les conditions de travail et de reproduction féminins dans notre mileu.
SubRosa met en oeuvre une politique féministe qui se nourrit de convivialité, de la volonté d'auto-détermination, et du désir d'alliances affirmatives.
Laissons fleurir un million de subRosas!
