"my childhood is a city on fire"

 

This performance is about a psychological mechanism in children who had to take on more responsibility than they could carry in their childhood: They often get the feeling that they are guilty, that they couldn’t help their parents or themselves well enough, when in reality they may just have been powerless. To them, it seems to be easier to accept their guilt, because then at least they had some kind of control over the situation.

"mars en de beer", june 2024

 

In the future, there is no more patriarchy. All men have broken free from the legacy and internalization of masculinity. Space has opened up everywhere for diverse masculinities, for joy, fun, hope and connection. What might that future look like? What does your dream image of the masculinities of the future look like? And how do we build a way there, from the here and now?
