Where is the line between fact and fiction? What role does imagination play in the stories we tell ourselves? With Confabulations, Diederik Peeters turns the definition of what we consider normal upside down. Like an amateur psychiatrist, he delves into the archives of our mental health in search of a new future image. One in which neurodiversity is embraced and mental vulnerability is not a taboo.

The performance will be shown during NEXT 2025!

Diederik Peeters (BE)

Diederik Peeters has been reported to pop up in the work of colleague-artists, cunningly disguised as actor, performer or even advisor. He is an officially certified visual artist that accidentally got lost in the stables of stage-art, and usually makes performances, but has also been caught writing texts, inventing installations or crafting other amalgams that are hard to categorise. With Hans Bryssinck and Kate McIntosh he founded SPIN, a Brussels based research and support platform for artistic practice.
