Why are we afraid? Fear is an evolutionary survival mechanism, but today it mostly seems to paralyse us with intense feelings of distrust, uneasiness, and stress. What’s more, we are increasingly confronted with a political culture of fearmongering that divides citizens.

Power dynamics and stigmatising imagery all seem to play a role. Who is seen as the perpetrator, who as the victim, who fights, who keeps quiet, who wins and who loses? What if we take that fear back into our own hands? And no longer let ourselves be pigeonholed. An act of subversion, deconstruction, and activation.

KVS dramaturge Dina Dooreman invites artists, speakers, … and you for a performative programme of reflection. Together, we set out in search of ways to transform fear into an artistic, alliant counterreaction. Fuck fear!
