The concept has spread to more than 50 cities around the world, each festival making a unique event.<br \/>\nLadyfests are based on the idea of creating alternative, friendly and open spaces.<br \/>\nThe idea is simple: a group of volunteers organises a festival during a couple of days around issues such as creativity, autonomy, exchange of knowledge, gender equality and struggle against heteronormality.<br \/>\nIts also an opportunity to build a community, generate discussions and collaborations between women, the local and the international community network.<\/p>\n<p>I was invited to show some work along with the following artists: <a href=\"http:\/\/aliceshole.blogspot.be\">Alice Smith<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/charlotteverdin.wordpress.com\">Charlotte Verdin<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/thatbeardgirl.com\">Megan Beard<\/a>, Barbara Kayl, Alice Steinmetz, <a href=\"http:\/\/impermanence.over-blog.com\">H\u00c3\u00a9l\u00c3\u00a8ne Antoine<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_3.jpg\" alt=\"ladyfest_3\" width=\"425\" height=\"2200\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6699\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nExhibition opening &#8211; Alice Steinmetz &#8211; Alice Smith &#8211; Megan Bird.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_1.jpg\" alt=\"ladyfest_1\" width=\"425\" height=\"2268\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_1.jpg 425w, https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_1-56x300.jpg 56w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nProcess and research.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_2_RMISS.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_2_RMISS.jpg\" alt=\"ladyfest_2_RMISS\" width=\"425\" height=\"318\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6701\" srcset=\"https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_2_RMISS.jpg 425w, https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_2_RMISS-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nInstallation: framed samples, textile collage and home-made soap.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_printing.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_printing.jpg\" alt=\"ladyfest_printing\" width=\"422\" height=\"904\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_printing.jpg 422w, https:\/\/champagne.constantvzw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ladyfest_printing-140x300.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nLive T-shirt printing workshop with Barbara Kayl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>14th, 15th, 16th march 2014, Brussels.
