Throughout the week we have also planned a diversity of cultural program! Swipe to read about the different performances 🎭Masketiere is a Berlin-based collective working between art, education, and social practice. A participatory walking act where a group of Masketiere move through the festival space wearing collectively created masks and objects. The procession becomes a living, shifting body, exploring anonymity, solidarity, and collective presence. It invites spontaneous encounters, slows down the environment, and opens a poetic space for shared attention and connection.We live on a ground that is shifting beneath us. We feel the drag and quake, but we don't go elsewhere to find home. We don't turn the cracks that are forming into new boundaries. This could separate us further. We highlight what the empire has done wrong, and the fact of accepting it, feeling its impact and embracing it sincerely makes it a perfect ground for a new foundation. We carve out new windows. They show the barren ground of the interior to the outsiders. But we can also see the world around and what is to come. Finally. embracing it sincerely mfoundation. We carve out new windows, They show the barren ground of the interior to the outsiders. But we can also see the world around and what is to come, Finally.Of course we should never take the ruins as our sole building material, We bring up someting new, Either forgotten, or newfound. Our preserved outure is to bloom and in its independence, it is to grow faster than ever, powered by the colours we build on. The new vistory,The fog diminishes, grows thier Or perhaps it's the light beaming off of our new homeThough, in many cases it's stil a dream. But in the prosess of e becoming true, we san gather, and share our experientes of rising back up, being oured of an exhausting infesten, sirling up from deep underground as a new, powerful voltane. And we will play it baok for you,In playback theatre audience members share their siories, and then actors, accompanied by a musician, play them Straightaway, Our performances oreate a temporary space of home," a space of shared stories, where one can be oneself, yulnerable, and where e by @mekivanc

Bringing together a most blue congregation for our @buurtoren_ fundraiser this Sunday. Vaulted ceiling sounds, drop into rain into pour and the whirring of many (tattoo) machines.Mekivanc & Solarfiction start transmitting frequencies. Then Fionnuala & Strom drop in a layer of improvised decay and loops. Our jesters Cat & Halldor lull us into puddles after. Gui joins the stream with a range of the bluest noise. And 17sport let us spill over the edge.See you there; come listen, come get a tat.19h-23hWGW Podium, Zomerhofstraat 71 RotterdamEntry on donation by @mekivanc

The first performance on Sunday afternoon, 15th February 2026, was by kivanc, titled Tea and Land, Story of Glass and Class.kivanc used the tea trolley from the WegGeefWinkel (Give and Take Shop), where we organize this Performance Art Event. He had performed this piece a few times before, each time adapting its structure to the context of the space.There is a gentle presence as he rolls the trolley into the half-circle of audience members. It is cozy—we are all on the same level. A piece of cloth hides what’s inside the trolley. We are introduced to tea, to the expansion of plant and land, and to the kinds of cups and glasses we drink from.We listen to hierarchies. What do cups tell us about class? He speaks the word reality, or did he say realtea? What makes tea real tea—and what is reality? And what do we really know about the reality of tea? Then, tea is offered, served in different glasses. We drink and observe.Thanks to @greigburgoyne2025 @mekivanc @margjeott @robert_kroos_duckfood @kirstenheshusius matie @herrieindewgw @douwebeerda @drklangendum @cultuurconcreet @circu_watte, @karolalalala_ @annemarietjevandenberg for making this possible!De eerste performance op zondagmiddag 15 februari 2026 was van kivanc, getiteld Tea and Land, Story of Glass and Class.kivanc gebruikte de theekar van de WegGeefWinkel, waar we dit Performance Art Event organiseren. Hij had dit stuk al een paar keer eerder uitgevoerd, telkens aangepast aan de context van de ruimte.Er is een zachte aanwezigheid terwijl hij het karretje het halve cirkeltje van het publiek inrolt. Het voelt knus—we zitten allemaal op hetzelfde niveau. Een stuk doek verbergt wat er in het wagentje ligt. We maken kennis met thee, met de expansie van plant en land, en met de soorten kopjes en glazen waaruit we drinken.We luisteren naar hiërarchieën. Wat vertellen kopjes ons over klasse? Hij spreekt het woord reality, of zei hij realtea? Wat maakt thee “echte thee”—en wat is realiteit? En wat weten we eigenlijk over de realiteit van thee? Vervolgens wordt de thee aangeboden, geserveerd in verschillende glazen. We drinken en observeren. by @mekivanc
