Under Construction (2023) takes the form of a pin-up calendar inspired by the challenge queer theories of time pose to linear administrative and colonial time. As a collaboration between Saturne Camus-Govoroff and Li Tavor, the calendar features erotic portraits of the artists in various construction sites, which are ubiquitous in Switzerland. Framing their transitioning bodies as sites under construction, the calendar playfully and subversively features their non-normative figures in a commercial format typically the domain of cis culture and offers themselves up for consumption and appreciation by their own queer, gender-non-conforming communities.

The calendar forges an alternative economy of desire and commerce with proceeds from sales supporting INAYA, a Swiss association dedicated to supporting women and genderqueer refugees.
