Weinig vrouwen die geen ervaring hebben met seksuele intimidatie op openbare plaatsen. ‘Catcalling’ is vandaag nog steeds een groot probleem, zo blijkt ook...

Het lijkt erop dat Brusselse vrouwen veel meer last hebben van opdringerige mannen en seksuele intimidatie op straat tijdens de lockdown. De politie roept op tot melden.

FLUX!? as a platform wants to be a safe space where all people can come together to share and create art through the value of respect for each individual that comes together in the collective identity of FLUX!?. FLUX!?’s upcoming EXPO will talk about what it is to live and exist in a 21st century full of disconnection. The art installations deal with our navigation through a modernised and digitalised world.
A central question asked here is how this digital and industrial era influences our perception of the natural and how it disconnects us from the lifeworld and each other.

In which way do we as people deal with the socio-cultural and political implications that this disconnection creates, and how does it influence our view on and experience of concepts such as gender, body image, poverty, globalisation, social media and ecology?
But perhaps the most important question we ask ourselves during this exposition is: How do we restore human connection?
FLUX!? presents with This-(disconnection) a celebration and call to strengthen the interactions and connections between people.
We bring you art as an immersive learning experience.
-- There will be a couple of live performances and dj-sets to keep us fluxing deep into the night.
Timetable and beer prices to be announced! 🙂 ❤
See you then, kisses from FLUX!?

Take care of urself 🌸

“Self-care is often a very unbeautiful thing.

It is making a spreadsheet of your debt and enforcing a morning routine and cooking yourself healthy meals and no longer just running from your problems and calling the distraction a solution.

It is often doing the ugliest thing that you have to do, like sweat through another workout or tell a toxic friend you don’t want to see them anymore or get a second job so you can have a savings account or figure out a way to accept yourself so that you’re not constantly exhausted from trying to be everything, all the time and then needing to take deliberate, mandated breaks from living to do basic things like drop some oil into a bath and read Marie Claire and turn your phone off for the day.

A world in which self-care has to be such a trendy topic is a world that is sick. Self-care should not be something we resort to because we are so absolutely exhausted that we need some reprieve from our own relentless internal pressure.

True self-care is not salt baths and chocolate cake, it is making the choice to build a life you don’t need to regularly escape from.

And that often takes doing the thing you least want to do.

It often means looking your failures and disappointments square in the eye and re-strategizing. It is not satiating your immediate desires. It is letting go. It is choosing new. It is disappointing some people. It is making sacrifices for others. It is living a way that other people won’t, so maybe you can live in a way that other people can’t.

It is letting yourself be normal. Regular. Unexceptional. It is sometimes having a dirty kitchen and deciding your ultimate goal in life isn’t going to be having abs and keeping up with your fake friends. It is deciding how much of your anxiety comes from not actualizing your latent potential, and how much comes from the way you were being trained to think before you even knew what was happening.

If you find yourself having to regularly indulge in consumer self-care, it’s because you are disconnected from actual self-care, which has very little to do with “treating yourself” and a whole lot do with parenting yourself and making choices for your long-term wellness.

It is no longer using your hectic and unreasonable life as justification for self-sabotage in the form of liquor and procrastination. It is learning how to stop trying to “fix yourself” and start trying to take care of yourself… and maybe finding that taking care lovingly attends to a lot of the problems you were trying to fix in the first place.

It means being the hero of your life, not the victim. It means rewiring what you have until your everyday life isn’t something you need therapy to recover from. It is no longer choosing a life that looks good over a life that feels good. It is giving the hell up on some goals so you can care about others. It is being honest even if that means you aren’t universally liked. It is meeting your own needs so you aren’t anxious and dependent on other people.

It is becoming the person you know you want and are meant to be. Someone who knows that salt baths and chocolate cake are ways to enjoy life – not escape from it.”

Twee verkrachtingen door politieagenten haalden in augustus het nieuws in Mexico-Stad en brachten duizenden vrouwen op straat. Een feministische protestgolf kleurt er de straten roze en paars. De Mexicaanse vrouwen hebben genoeg van het geweld.
