The team

Juno Eija (She/her)
29 yr old AuDHD lesbian trans woman
Juno studied at the Funen Art Academy and the Royal Danish Academy of Design. She dropped out of both. She adores art but hates the art world. She hasn't made art for years, because how could she? Nobody wants disabled dropout t-girl art… Unless it's for a manic inclusivity/diversity programme. Or maybe she's just more into social justice, mutual aid, and critical theory than she's into making it in the art world now. Maybe she's just insecure. Anyways, art can be a powerful force when its not in the hands of the wrong people for the wrong reasons. That's why Juno initiated Gestalt. Neurodivergent queer people often struggle to find community. Too queer for the neurodivergent community and too neurodivergent for the queer community. Too disabled, too trans, too gay, too autistic. Too mad. Gestalt is for us.
Juno is the initiator of Gestalt and the main organizer at the moment.

Elo Salto (he/they)
23 yr old AuDHD queer enby
Elo is trained as a bike mechanic, but has shifted their focus to making art. Through their art they explore topics such as connection, identity, queer culture and vulnerability, with a wide range of media. They love art, making plushies, trinkets and resting. Elo dreams about more spaces and community for neurodivergent queer people and that is why they joined Gestalt. Elo wants to create community trough art, writing, sharing special interests, knowledge and lifting each other up.
Elo will be working with community building and organizing
Maja Bæk (she/her/they/them)
31 yr old queer autist/ADHD
Maja proofreads, edits, and translates text for the zine.
Blue (they/them)
23 yr old non-binary autist
Blue is a non-binary and autistic French person! They've studied Psychology and Film at the University of St Andrews (Scotland) and are now doing a master's in gender studies at Linköping University (Sweden) - they love being all over the place. They have worked with queer student magazines before and were in charge of layout and design - it's completely self-taught tho. They love putting everything together to create a new meaning - literal definition of autism 🌈
They'll be helping doing the design for the zine - and maybe will share some of their written works too :)
Blue will be designing and layouting the zine.

Xenia (they/them)
26 yr old non-binary AuDHD
Xenia appreciates caring people, forests, art and dogs (among many other things). They have studied fine arts in Norway for a while but it wasn’t the right fit. Now they still spend most of their time working on various art projects through fx ceramics, prints or text. Perhaps just existing is quite a project itself. That’s the kind of things they roam around the forests thinking about. They dream of being a loving part of other peoples lives and want to contribute to a more caring future. Being a neurodivergent queer person in this world can be confusing, but Xenia thinks that inclusive communities can make it all much better. They want to share care and knowledge and nice, safe times with other neuroqueer folk which is why they became a part of gestalt.
