SAVE THE DATE - ARON SAXE FASHION PRESENTATION AND EXHIBITION OPENING
🌀 RSVP LINK IN BIO 🌀
On December 12th 2025, Aron Saxe, a Fashion Designer and Artist in Residence at
@club.raum will open his show ‘you might need to sit for this’. Through his research he has worked closely with a group of Trans Men to translate their stories into a collection of clothing and an installation work. At the opening the collection will be shown as a two part fashion presentation featuring the research participants as models.
Aron hopes that with this project he can give insight into the often unseen stories of Trans Men by facilitating this moment for each of them to share their own.
‘you might need to sit for this’ is a phrase used to prepare someone for difficult or shocking news. Additionally it speaks to the time needed to sit with your own emotions. Aron Saxe has used his residency as a tool for himself and the Trans Masculine Community to do just that - with his collaboration with the participants and the community event he organised as a part of his residency.
Each individual participant’s clothing, space and sculpture represent their own readiness to sit with the emotion they accessed from their chosen memory; significant to their transition and relationship to gender. The work recalls memories both physical and emotional from times of deep fragility, confusion and despair whilst also building hope in the connections and brotherhood forged through bonding over shared narratives.
Aron Saxe welcomes the Trans Community for a closed viewing of Part I at 19.00 and then all are welcome for Part II at 20.00. There will be be DJ sets following by two of the Participants -
@jasonvgalen and
@leocebriann to celebrate this moment of platforming Trans Masculine narratives and celebrating their talent.
