DIVE INTO THE PROGAMME!

DONIA
DONIA is based in Brussels and co-founder of sketchy lines records. As your local dopamine dealer she catches you in the streetlit corner of your soul to stretch genres until they lose their ego so you can just focus on your inner dance.

Eleni Papadopoulou
Eleni’s work is an ongoing dialogue. Linking different mediums mainly textile and perfomance, the unity and the solidarity of a work amongst fiction and reality, the relationship and ownership of a work amidst the artist and the audience. The personal limits of those two. Through irony and sarcasm, she infiltrates reality and memory in order to create a personal mythology, with the purpose to engage with the rest. An important aspect of her work is alienation.

Elvira Mulkay
Elvira’s work is characterised by playfulness and colour, complemented by contrasts in form, material and meaning. Her work, influenced by industry, fashion and personal collections, carries her hidden past and emotional experiences. Combining craft with modern techniques, Elvira challenges through the depth and complexity of her work.

Magdalena Collectief

Magdalena Collectief is a young collective from Ghent and Brussels. The four members – Maria Magdalena de Cort, Musia Mwankumi, Abigail Gypens, Madonna Lenaert – find each other during their training at KASK Drama and build a lasting collaboration. They continue to find each other in a shared desire for liberation and belonging through intersectional feminism, ecology, queerness and anti-racism. They try to make invisible things visible, and the unspoken discussable.

Mugger Hugger
Antwerp based shower trio Mugger Hugger is best described as corny punk disco for horny pseudo-intellectuals. An hommage to the music by Joe Rogan, Kamala Harris or Amber Heard. They mainly find inspiration in the world of finance, think: Nike, Apple, Warner Brothers, … Their live shows, unlike their wardrobe, leave everything to the imagination.

NMSS
NMSS (Nemesis) is an Afropean, Genderfluid artist born from the blend of French and Ivorian culture. This DJ/Producer based in Brussels proposes a rich universe oscillating between euphoric and dystopic atmospheres. NMSS always surprises the audience with their high energy sets, celebrating the role of Afro-descendant and queer communities in electronic music

Partytent Art Center
P.A.C. – Partytent Art Center is an art center that stimulates experimentat in the showcasing of art in public spaces and values spontaneous interactions. The center hopes to engage artists to take more autonomy over the presentation of their art practice and the public space. Anyone who chooses to set up a partytent and show work in it’s vicinity automatically becomes the director of that Partytent Art Center.

Rosie Stuart
Rosie’s head is constantly spinning around every detail, but with her music it seems to come naturally for a moment. The singer-songwriter and Ghent native in turbulent water reflects her suffering lyrically. Together with her three-member band, Rosie takes on the walls and the people around her, in a confrontation in which she fights not only the audience but also herself. With echoes of Sinéad O’Connor, PJ Harvey or Patti Smith in her haunting voice.

Sad Banana
Sad Banana attempts to look at the world from the perspective of a banana. From inconsistent reflections, it attempts to make an existential fruit salad in the form of a musical concert. Filled with lyrics that navigate between grandiloquence and panic attack, vulnerability and kitsch, politics and pastiche. Sad B. uses their fondness for punk, rap music and Dadaism to create a contemporary rendition of what it means to be an overripe banana in a post-capitalist world. It makes them feel sad, but tears become beats if you know how to use them well. Sad!
