Hoeven in de schaduw #analoog

Een nieuw woord voor ex, iemand? Het is een woord dat veel en tegelijk niks zegt: ex. Zoals in ex-lief. Bij de ene is het gekruid met veel liefde, bij de andere compleet gedrenkt in azijn. In tijden waarin we minder zwart-witdenken over relaties is het tijd voor een nieuw woord. 📸 @destandaard 📝Lieve Van de Velde

(EX)HIBITION ｡･:* 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸-𝘂𝗽 (𝗮𝗸𝗮 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴) May 9st 15h-19h @zsenneartlab 15h @mevisssssss & @mariedebroeck 𝗠𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀 𝘅 𝗠𝗗𝗕 If you don’t want to call it an ex, keep on organising events together, that’s what Marie and Johannes did. Working on their friendship, they have to admit that it's weird but exciting to gather again in an “ex” context. Alongside their love for each other, they’ll share their love for music, striking a tone somewhere between casual and melodramatic. Love will prevail. 18h @netraamb 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝗱𝘀 Maarten Bastiaensen is a poet and performer. After coming to the vernissage of (Ex)hibition last Friday, he spent the whole Saturday with his ex, on a trip to the seaside. He wrote the text 'We shall be birds' about this, which he will read for you on Saturday. 18h30 @ramsenco 𝗔 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗼𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 For the closing or break-up Jasper Coremans will perform his poetry once more, but this time solo without any musical support. 18h50 @lauranne_vdheede & @ramsenco 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝘁?

What is an ex? Something, or rather someone, you don’t necessarily like to talk about, right? A subject willing to inflict pain on your sorry ass heart which has grown so much since those days of amorous naivety. Of course there exists a group of lovers who regard their ex-partner in a more fluid way; meaning that their relationship doesn’t end as definite as the term ‘ex’ implies, just as a novel doesn’t end after its third chapter. Lauranne and Jasper consider themselves part of that group. After loving each other for 7 years their bumpy road to love has come to an end. Or maybe it didn’t. Lauranne and Jasper won’t settle for simply being ex-lovers and are determined to explore their relationship in a way that is not romantic anymore. But how to call someone who is your ex but also quite isn’t? Through this exhibition they investigate the outerrims of our romantic dictionary looking for a new concept in which they can envelop themselves. So rather than just using this exhibition as a way of saying goodbye to their collective past, the exhibition itself operates as research for their future relationship without forgetting their past. From this point of view the exhibition isn’t only a glorified memorial of the 7 years Lauranne and Jasper spent as lovers, moreover it is an exclamation of unconditional gratitude towards each other which can only be lost when using the concept of ex-lovers. So how should these two individuals call each other then? This question is central in their collaboration and is open to answers on your part. Come to cry and laugh Come to watch, listen and feel Come to mourn Come to love Bring your ex ｡･:* 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝗮𝗸𝗮 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴) May 1st
