My “Fight Clubs” are political soft spaces of care and empowerment, where through the practice of play fighting and self-defense, we liberate our body and voice, discover our power and challenge our strength, and develop self-confidence and resistance.
Against the intimidating and objectifying male gaze used as an instrument of women’s oppression, we regularly do eye-gazing exercises, and learn how to confront it instead of looking away. We reinforce our eyes as a muscle, and rehearse to gaze back proudly again, again, and again. Making our eye muscles stronger and stronger, we gaze back day after day with a little bit more confidence, and a little bit less of fear.

Author"Born in Budapest (Hungary) in 1983, I graduated from the ENSAPC Art School (France) in 2016. As an artist, researcher, and community activist, I harness the power of art for connection, education, and activism. My practice spans various mediums, including image, object, and performance. I create full-length visual and dance performances, short-format pieces, and immersive experiences, while also creating spaces for non-formal education outside of traditional academic heritage. Over the past two decades, I've founded the School of Disobedience, established my own performance art company (Gray Box), and launched the annual Wildflowers Festival. I embrace everything unusual, unexpected, and nonconformist. I am not kind with assholes and have learned to forge my own path. I am here to guide you in thinking outside the box and achieving independence. To me, the real party is outside the confines of the established canon." Archives
