Process video of the safe(r) space @horstartsandmusic First of all, thank you to @erykah.evb for giving me the trust to create this space. I’m a true believer in textiles having a positive impact on our neurological system, so adding them to a safe(r) space seems to me to be one of the first steps toward reconnection. Also, thank you to @hitch.tools for providing a system that allows me to create a textile environment within a space. I’ve been dreaming about a place like this. And last but not least, thank you to @serafinodecoratie for giving me all your leftover fabrics, which made it possible to recycle everything inside this little cubicle. I’m still recovering from the last few months because they where intense but I’m excited for what’s coming next. <3

Her work transforms everyday materials into immersive pieces, from latex bodysuits to rubber jewelry, challenging conventions and inviting engagement. Moderator: @zuzannarachowska is a curator, exhibition producer, and writer based in Antwerp, exploring polyphony and the contextual intersections of art.

When you think about the heart of community and a shared drive for change, the name Burenhinder quickly pops up. This collective uses hard dance to build spaces for rebellion and liberation. Refusing to conform, they’re bringing their vision to TRAUM, curating a night focused on inclusivity and bold expression. Prepare for a seismic shift. Tbilisi-born, Berlin-forged Salome (Herrensauna) is set to detonate the dancefloor with a volatile mix of electro and techno. From Lausanne’s underground depths NVST will prove her status as a boundary-shattering force. Completing this globally sourced lineup is a true boundary-breaker: END. Burenhinder’s own residents round up the bill with some sweat-soaked back-to-back sets. Line-up: @salome6_6 @nast_is_nvst DJ End (@09h30_05h30 ) @myu__sa B2B @lolailegems @_cam_cool B2B @walt.ur Tickets available now.

Here it is! I used my own name and that feels way too serious. I also feel like I need to add some stuff to the website but I also should shut up and have fun showing my little project to the internet. I also discovered this song on the radio this morning and i’ve been listening to it on repeat. Maybe you will to??? Maybe not. Thank you again @lau_c_n_n_t

Screenshot of the website :)) this one shows different ways on how you can use the sausage pillows. You know, the ones i’ve been making since 2 years now, goddamn time flies

I really want to post more but every time I look true my pictures I start overthinking if it would look good on my feed and honestly who cares about that but me. So I should just start posting again. I have so much stuff that is now being unseen by any one who would care. I also think it’s lame to write in English while my native tongue is Dutch. Welcome in my strain of thoughts. Also, I made a website with @lau_c_n_n_t , I mean, she made the whole thing and we discussed about it. Bless her. Ps @lau_c_n_n_t pls contact me, I owe u <3
