FUTURE VOICES by Nicole Beutler Projects presents the creators of tomorrow. This season features a double bill with Lucinda Wessels and Timo Tembuyser, exploring identity in motion. Wessels’ multidisciplinary dance duet Fluid Figures and Tembuyser’s post-porn pop concert Isle of Eros challenge fixed notions of identity and gender, offering a powerful argument for fluidity and self-determination.

Fluid Figures is a physical, multi-layered performance where dance, sound, and performance merge into a single, hybrid form. Through a queer, bicultural lens, Lucinda Wessels explores identity through an intimate, introspective journey. The dancers embody diverse roles and viewpoints, creating a dynamic where contrast and connection coexist. The piece invites the audience to let go of fixed boundaries and embrace contradictions as part of a unified whole.

Isle of Eros is an erotic concert exploring ‘the longing for oneness’, where the desire to merge with one another clashes with the urge to be a strongly defined individual. After several performances centered around the community as a singing entity, (Mementum, Missa Homo Sacer, Mystica, NOW WE ARE EARTH), Timo Tembuyser now presents himself as a soloist. A quirky Master of Ceremonies leads us through a post-porn pop concert. A vibrant celebration of the wild man, queerness, sexuality, and love.

  • Premiere: Friday 6 November
