WORKING TITLE FESTIVAL — Kasper Vandenberghe climbs on a scaffolding clad in a protective suit and then drops down like a rock. It is calculated recklessness. It is a poetic search for how vulnerable we can still allow ourselves to be and how we can understand vulnerability as a force. It is dancing on the loose rope between two deeply human desires: the desire for balance versus a bottomless leap into the unknown.

WORKING TITLE FESTIVAL — Hidden at the basement of workspacebrussels, lies Kosi Hidama’s atelier. Occupying the space over the past few years, his work slowly started invading all the other spaces of the building. With Garden of solid subtleness Kosi will create an interior summer garden with the ceramics he produced at his basement atelier, in combination with subtle sounds. The artist invited his friend Misha Downey to work with him on this pottery landscape.

Blind Spot is a quest to find what scarce traces remain of Epp Kotkas, an Estonian artist who was active in the experimental dance scene of New York in the 60s and 70s. Talve combines fact and fiction to tell the story of an artist who was totally unknown in her home country. What you witness is an essayistic memory that attempts to reconstruct an unrecorded past.

This interactive installation, somewhere between documentary and fiction, takes as its starting point intimate tales of first sexual experiences in times of war and peace in the Middle East. The work is based on testimonies from several generations of citizens from Palestine, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria, adults’ memories of their teenage years.

104,5° is the angle formed in a water molecule, between the two hydrogen atoms, and the oxygen atom H-O-H. The Breadth of 104.5° is the umbrella title over an ongoing series of works by the artist, dedicated to exploring the ideas and notions around the essentiality of one of the most, if not the most, important element for the existence of life as we know it.
