"Breaking Free hands-out open-source support to perform self-exclusion individualy and together. This guide offers manuals to stitch, paint and identify appropriate wear, a script to perform and stimulating ideas and experiences. Breaking Free: Queer Temporality and Collaborative Art is a celebration of collective creativity and self-expression, offering a dynamic fusion of artistic tools to explore and to queer identity. Inspired by Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica and brought to life by queer artist LDB+ (Lieven De Boeck), this manual blend academic insight, artistic practice, and lived experiences. Through stitching, painting, and performing, this book guides and invites participants to engage in collaborative artmaking while challenging traditional norms. Highlighting the strength of community, the book offers open-source tools, ideas for creating, activating, and experiencing art in dynamic and transformative ways. Breaking Free also invited two writers to engage with the project: Bradley Wester, who documented the creation and activation of the project in Sarasota and Miami, and Antony Hudek, who placed LDB+'s new work within the context of contemporary art."--Back cover.
