FEU2FORÊT. A Song of Dignity?
33 years after the revolts of Forest in Brussels, Belgium, we gather to celebrate ‘FEU2FORÊT. A song of dignity?’, a collective publication that aims at passing on the stories told around the fire of the FEU2FORÊT exhibition that took place in Forest in November 2021.
The publication weaves together various images, drawings, videos, performances, and installations that were on show during the exhibition and gathers friendly reflection by among others, Maxime Jean-Baptiste, Marielle Pelissero, Olivier Marboeuf and Sofia Dati. It combines these visual elements with narrative and reflective threads, along with the collected archival material.
By reviving the forgotten smoldering fire of 1991, the publication hopes to strengthen our understanding of the sparks that flew off various Brussels neighborhoods, to confront the challenges we unfortunately still face today.
