Misbehaving celebrity, rural female, and queer icon, this talk explores these multiple identities and the shifting fandom imaginaries surrounding Na Yina (aka 那艺娜 Lady Nana). Through the lens of Chinese queer fandom, Lady Nana is reassembled within Chinese digital media, Chinese queer culture, and platform governance. Her fluent figures, shaped by digital platforms and participatory culture, give rise to a Chinese queer art of failure. Featuring queer artist Blueberrylan, this session centers her new zine “Refund” Is My Chant: Lady Nana and Chinese Queer Art of Failure, opening a conversation on digital fandom and the politics of queer worldmaking in contemporary China.
本講座探討那藝娜所承載的多重身份——「劣跡藝人」、「農村婦女」、「酷兒偶像」，以及圍繞其生成與流動的粉絲想像。透過中國酷兒粉絲文化的視角，那藝娜在中國數位媒體、酷兒文化與平台治理的交織之中被重新構想。她流動多變的形象，在數位平台與參與式文化的塑造下，催生出一種中國酷兒的失敗藝術。是次講座邀請酷兒藝術家 Blueberrylan嵐莓，以其新作小誌《我的應援口號是“退票”：那藝娜與中國酷兒失敗學》為核心，展開對當代中國數位粉絲文化與酷兒世界建構政治的討論。
