WIDE OPEN is all about crafting nested realities, worlds within worlds, hidden pockets of existence where you’re free to don any persona you want to perform. Everyone is fake; everyone is real.
We aim to blend queer art and nightlife in an organic manner, striving to curate a happening where performances transcend mere entertainment and where pleasure meets politics.
Queerness is intangible. It’s monstrosity; it’s abjection; it’s cyborgs and animals melded into a hybrid c*nty-entity.
Come meet us tomorrow around the dance floor, the darkroom, the stage, the zine table, or the video installation. Secure your ticket by clicking the RA link in our bio.
Thanks to
@mx.sur for providing us with the soundtrack, Moan of Dark, one of the tracks on the EP "Erotik Politik Romantik"
ABOUT Mx. SÜR (XSM Recordings, Istanbul)
Ever since 2007, Mx. Sür has been aiming at contributing to the unifying power of music and dance as a person behind the decks. Hacking life by means of nightlife culture and calibrating between the genres, Mx. Sür is one of the procreators of Istanbul’s unique spaces; Wake Up Call, Suma Beach and Mama. Standing as one of the scene’s most outspoken queer voices, they are also behind prolific party series such as Come to Mama!, TUTTIFRUTTI and XES. Mx. Sür’s latest Project comes in the form of their founded label, XSM Recordings (Ex-Stepmother Recordings), the slutty and revolutionary motherhood projects that expands and queers the boundaries of definitions, which made quite the first impression with the release of « ALAN2020 », a pride parade anthem by Mx. Sür and Kübra Uzun. Recently, they have been attempting at shifting to mommy era by releasing new records via XSM Recordings and organizing XSM events.
