Collective Masquerade

Welcome to the celebration of fluid collectives, where you don’t have to be defined by your genre, your preferences or your background. Bring them on, we don’t want to hide or to ignore them neither. Let’s confront ourselves with each other’s heritage and re learn how to care, looking for our common grounds. The Overkill “Collective Masquerade” invites artists, curators, game developers and creative minds to explore how we can redefine ourselves as individuals, species, society, and connected beings.
