Open Studio: Moving Identities

As part of the residency program “Moving Identities”, the performers of the Belgian collective “The Age of Love” are researching from the perspective of second-generation immigrants, also known as “de schakelgeneratie” (the changing generation).

The Age of Love is a multidisciplinary performance collective that was born in the summer of 2021. Samuel Valor Reyes founded this collective in search for underrepresented diverse talents rooted in Limburg, Belgium. These diverse talents were discovered in various ways to even getting inspired by interesting bodies and identities on the streets. The Age of Love quickly became an inclusive community focused on brave spaces. The philosophy of brave spaces allowed the performers to always start from a place of empowerment. In the summer of 2022 The Age of Love debuted their performance ‘The Age of Love’, transforming their philosophy in a performative setting. ‘The Age of Love’ talks about being reborn and finding community and support in different identities coming together. It shows the possibility of finding love through our differences and similarities with the idea of ‘black or white, straight or queer: it’s all disco. – Moving Identities 

In the Open Studio they show a work-in-progress of their research.
