Zaterdag zullen we een groots labyrinth bouwen met baalkatoen in de studio en maken we collectief focaccia deeg dat we afbakken in de pizzaoven. Op de tonen van Spa’s playlist kunnen lijfjes wiegend en dansend zich verliezen in het labyrinth.

come in

linger around

stay

just a little bit longer

sit down, lie down,

whisper me singing,

mumble and stumble

upon me you

my sausages

feel with your

finger toes cheeks or chest

how soft hard this can be

nothing is not

ever changing

patches away

picnic-ing inn

a border the boundary the little fence

you’re

passing through

----

Come by and say hi! ☁️
