Tibau Beirnaert & Laurens Aneca

Zero Feet Away

Sex is now at least as digital as it is physical; we have become interconnected algorithms. How do we break the code that traps us in restrictive patterns?

A shape-shifter, longing for intimacy, turns to hookup apps in search of sex. On their journey, this being encounters both the possibilities and the limitations of modern technology. Do these apps contribute to a new regime of desires? Can they break through heteronormative structures? And can the shape-shifter find their own form?

Tibau Beirnaert and Laurens Aneca met during their studies at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent, where they both studied Drama. Their shared interest in queerness is at the core of their artistic collaboration. Since 2023, they have been working on a trilogy focused on intimacy. Their first production, F A G G O T S, was presented at Festival Cement 2024
