What are the places for art we create in our society? Do we give it enough space, importance, value, thought? Do we know enough about its healing, transformative powers?

​

Squatting territory, not meant for art, and being in the very heart of the human market exchange of services, we wonder: how we can emphasize here the special nature of art and the quality of exchange it offers between people. How this squatting can become rather a soft invasion or a gentle, caring penetration? What kind of senses, organs, structures, ideas, do we want to wake up here?

 

In this very unique and original proposition from Rudi van der Merwe, where art almost turns into actionist gesture, we propose you this immersive experience as a suggestion of a sensual and reflective trip, guiding us through the different layers of our bodies, minds, spirits, souls, live materials, and the materiality of life.

The timetable of the evening can be seen on the main page. Having simultaneous performances is not about creating competition between the artists, but rather a collective wave of soft power, being able to reveal itself even through physical distancing.  Feel free to enter and leave the artists' rooms, to move freely between them, no one is watching you tonight.
