OPENING | Sensitive obscurities: exploring the queer (sub)conscious.
Join us on the 5th of August from 20:00 at Roodkapje Rotterdam for a truly remarkable opening of the exhibition Sensitive obscurities: exploring the queer (sub)conscious, filled with music, performances and an unapologetically queer atmosphere:
20:00 Doors open
20:45 Welcoming words
21:00-22:00 DJ set by SUKUBRATZ
22:00-22:30 Licka Lolly
22:30-23:30 DJ set by SUKUBRATZ
23:30-00:00 Performance by Lilith de Ville
00:00-01:00 DJ set by SUKUBRATZDJ set TBA back to back
The event is free of charge, however we are curating an intentional space so the organization holds the right of removal in case deemed necessary. We are holding the space together- in a consensual manner.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
‘’Sensitive obscurities: exploring the queer (sub)conscious’’ comes from a deep desire to connect with the inner struggles, and then ultimately joys, of the queer body. By exploring the inner works of the experiences of five members, part of the queer community in Rotterdam, the work connects with feelings of anger, loneliness, and abandonment. The reality of living within a queer body that is Othered, and often either put on a holy pedestal or seen as a devilish mistake. By not running away from the underlying abjection of these feelings, visual artist Rik Versteeg and participants Licka Lolly, Roberto Angels, Lillith de Ville, Xiang Ye Yueng and Fae embarked, on a journey to create a storytelling exhibition, consensually exploring these very human journeys through a queer and post-feminist lens.
After the opening, the exhibition is on view from August 6 till August 13
Saturday 12:00 - 20:00
Tuesday 12:00 - 20:00
Wednesday 12:00 - 20:00
Thursday 12:00 - 20:00

Join us on August 13 for the closing event with a panel discussion with artists Rik Versteeg, Licka Lolly, Roberto Angels, Lillith de Ville, Xiang Ye Yueng and Fae about vulnerability, queerness, beauty, mental health and many other topics that were brushed uppon to make the exhibition come to life.
