ABOUT PROJECT
Nowadays on Social Media, one can choose from more than 70 different gender identities. In The fluid force of love, Jan Fabre's warriors of beauty come out of the closetin pursuit of the very essence of love. They ask themselves;whatisthe 'labelling of sexuality' in today's societyall about? Why do we feel the need to name and publish oursex,gender and sexual preferences? Can'twe all just be humans, respecting each other and respecting the love we experience towards other human beings?

At a time of 'liberating coming out',that invites us to finally assert our deep identity, coming out of the closet remains a radical act. Jan Fabre responds to the labelling of our sexualitywith unbridled and playful humour. Unfolding the fascinating range of all possible loves, of singular fantasies, it overturns good thinking, erects the freedom to love, vital and elusive, like the necessary fluid of which we are all made.
