DEW
11 o’clock
Low rumbling noise
You stand in a queue of glitter-covered goblins
Eyes twitching, jaws doing morse code You question everything, especially your shoes
Inside strobe lights flicker like the gods are trying to send you a message
The air is 70% humidity 30% lost smoke clouds and broken dreams You become a jellyfish, a sexy rhythmic jellyfish
Time collapses Your phone says 2:44 but your soul says Wednesday
And when it ends, you emerge like a newborn duckling sweaty, confused, craving cheesy chips and emotional validation.
You promise never again You lie You’ll be back next Friday

Special thanks to Arenberg and the team for the trust, space and support 🖤
In ‘they never’ two individuals research the sincere connection that never happened but always existed.
A certain form that we as humans do not reach but will always be looking for.
An intense soul connection sometimes called a “mirror soul.” It’s based on the idea that sometimes one soul gets split into two bodies.
This is due to the mirroring nature of a twin flame; they show you your deepest insecurities, fears and shadows.
*Ode to Robin’s parents who lost their siamese twins.

Thrilled to announce that I’ll be performing at Orphica during Voodoo Village this September
Orphica is a new immersive stage where performance, movement and atmosphere come together in a unique way, and I’m very excited to be part of its first edition.
Thank you @orphicaonstage@celinedwaele and @voodoovillagefestival for the trust. Can’t wait to share this experience!
