slower softer closer

One day performance event
Sunday, August 9.
16:00 - 22:00.

Ella Schöning, Günther De Beuckelaer, Liana Geysen-Rymenants, Zlata Ziborova

slower softer closer turns the exhibition space into a soft, intimate counter-space within Antwerp Pride. For one day BURO_ASAP becomes a hub of rest, given over to tenderness, vulnerability, and queer kinship. Queerness as radical slowness, as radical softness.

Join us on Sunday, August 9 for a day built around small moments and quiet encounters. There will be a reading space, somewhere to sit, room to linger, to just be. This is a soft pride, quiet and romantic. The space becomes somewhere to connect, resisting the accelerated tempo of daily life.

We are happy to present artists whose work explores the intimacy of queerness, inviting the audience into moments of shared vulnerability and care through performance.
