_The forest

The forest is a place where you never know where you are and never feel lost. This state prior to the unknown allows us to write the future in ways we could never have imagined.

Entering the forest is an invitation to the practice of the ‘unknown.’ A concept that transforms once it is named, as an exercise in resistance against the capitalist production system that dominates the entire knowledge-based world. The unknown creates a space of encounter between participants according to relational rules in the making. The exchange of information and codes is intimate and delicate. It lies a few millimeters away from what we consider reality and continually raises questions about the meaning and power of things. In this way, it sheds light on the tradition of censorship to establish common guidelines on what is good and what is bad.

Step into a tender universe and embark on a journey into the unknown. We conclude the day together at sunset with a heartwarming ritual.

Lucia Palladino (IT/BE)

Lucia Palladino is an independent transdisciplinary artist and researcher based in Brussels. Her work focuses on the encounter with the other and on how this encounter questions identities and properties. Movement, choreography, writing and filming practices are being used as forms of resistance to fixed notions of identity, to institutions, and as tools for institutional critique. Her work researches power relations and questions everything we take for granted.
