Talking Anxiety

We will explore the topic through conversing in a small group (max. 8 participants). We will create a safe space to share experiences of and thoughts about anxiety – if you join, you are free to choose if you want to share your own experiences and to what extent. You are welcome to attend once or multiple times.

The first evening will be a general one. We will explore questions such as ‘What is anxiety?’, ‘How can we tell that we are anxious?’ and ‘What is the influence of anxiety?’. From this first conversation we will distill the themes to explore in the four nights after. Keep an eye on this event to learn what those will be.

The discussion nights start at 19.00 and end around 21.00. Beforehand the exhibition Daydreaming Subverts the World will be open so you can take a look around before we start. The discussion nights themselves will take place behind closed doors.

Please reserve your spot by sending an email to bureaucontemporaryanxiety@gmail.com. Please also state whether you would prefer to discuss in English or in Dutch.

All findings of the Bureau through questionnaires and discussion nights will feed into a final presentation on the 5th of November.
