From an archive of poetry written by youngsters at the former youth centre Rzoezie (Amazigh for “wasp”, ‘78-‘06) in Mechelen (Belgium), the original authors and contemporary poets revisit, recite and discuss their selection of poems, probing their resonance in today’s social and political “weather”.

Robin Vanbesien is a Brussels based filmmaker, artist and cultural worker whose films, installations and performances inhabit an explorative search for a ‘co-elaborative’ feeling and thinking that is social and material. His debut film, Under These Words (Solidarity Athens 2016), and the associated book, Solidarity Poiesis: I Will Come and Steal You, constitute an account of the social poetics of solidarity work. His work has been shown at various venues internationally (a.o. Contour Biennale, transmediale, Lumiar Cité, Athens Biennale, Sculpture International Rotterdam).
