The exact same thing can be fun and exciting in one moment, and annoying and aggressive in the next. That’s why applying great sex tricks is useless if the lights are too bright and the background noises too loud, or if your lover is still stressed from work. That’s why paying more attention to creating comfortable environments is essential – environments in which the bodies can feel safe and only then get deeply aroused. What things accelerate pleasure? What functions more as brakes of lust? So what should we invite into and eliminate out of our spheres when having a date come over? In this workshop we will playfully become the architects of sexy contexts, going through the individual pillars and foundations of stimulating spaces (which can be in and around us) and finally create and try them out!
A workshop of the Xplore Berlin Festival
The Xplore Festival...
… is a three-day immersive event with a focus on the sexual body and sexuality as artistic expression.
… offers more than 60 workshops, happenings, performances and lectures at the intersection between art and sexuality, as well as three curated play spaces for individual experiences.
… hosts a wide range of presenters who play with, work with, and explore the phenomenon of sexuality. Individuals who have developed powerful techniques and rituals on their way. These forms and expressions are as varied as sexuality itself. Some are therapeutic in nature, some emerge from aesthetic intentions, others are searches for borderline experiences. Many of them just aim for pure pleasure. Their common ground is playfulness, communication, creativity. They expand sexuality beyond pornographic stereotypes, heteronormativity and the traditional couple relationship. They represent a different sexual culture. They are art with body and soul.
… displays a social field with a dramatically different code of communication: Honesty and directness, empathy and kindness are the norm.
… is an idea of the choreographer and conceptual artist Felix Ruckert and takes places annually in Berlin, Germany since 2004. Currently there are also annual editions in Roma and Barcelona.
