GLITTER IN THE CRACKS Vol. 2

Through performances, movement workshops, and other formats, they open up a space where the focus is not on the perfect result, but on the shared process. At the center is togetherness—as an attitude, a practice, and a source of strength.

Following a successful and atmospheric first edition of GLITTER IN THE CRACKS last August, the collective looks forward with anticipation to a completely new program in 2026.

The platform is born out of a spirit of sharing, improvisation, and mutual care. Using simple means and a do-it-yourself approach, individual visions are realized together. Every participant is both an artist and a supporter—whether on stage, in support roles, in documentation, in holding spaces, or in the often-invisible work behind the scenes. This working method is conceived as a living model of artistic solidarity and shared responsibility.

Over the course of four days, the audience is invited to a diverse and evolving program that includes, among other things, drag, dance, performance art, durational performances, pop culture, music, visual art, and participatory formats. The focus is not on presenting finished works, but on making artistic processes visible—from works in progress to raw ideas and spontaneous impulses.

This gathering is also a response to structural scarcity and articulates a clear stance: Creativity is not tied to big stages or large budgets, but arises from connection, presence, and a shared creative will.

Art is understood here as a way of life—as a way of thinking, feeling, and relating to the world. What unites the collective is a belief in the power of artistic practice, in all its diversity and contradictions, as a space for self-exploration, exchange, and collective imagination.

The audience is not viewed as passive spectators, but as part of a living process—invited to perceive, empathize, and co-create.

This creates an invitation: to experience, to move, to be present—and to become part of an event unfolding in the here and now.
