cleave festival 2021
BYOB is an intimate journey through a deconstructed party. With a re-imagined playlist, this participatory live art performance looks to create a sense of community and shift perceptions: through quiet and caring moments of joy. It is an antidote to the separation and individualistic mentalities which have been amplified by the government throughout this pandemic. It is a quiet invitation to get together and party, (sort of).
