Fucking (Beyond) Fear: On Kink, Risk, and Solidarity

In a world that is profoundly unsafe for many of us, we can no longer collectively afford to keep operating under the illusion of what Lucie Fielding calls “The Safety Axiom” (the idea that feeling safe is a precondition to engaging in challenging things).

❤️‍🔥 When conjuring and co-creating emotionally transformative scenes that ask so much of us, what do we gain when we yield control and exchange stability & surety for solidarity?

❤️‍🔥 How, and under what (pre-)conditions, might we turn toward, embrace, and meet each other during, and after, transformative experiences, and in the face of the risk of rupture, discomfort, and uncertainty?

❤️‍🔥 In short: how do we f-ck (and live) beyond fear?

In this 3 hour experience–through lecture, journaling and reflection, group discussion, and a demo scene– Athénaïs Nin & Empress Wu will offer an immersive and engaging deep dive into these questions.

CONTENT NOTE: This workshop will include a psychologically, emotionally, and energetically intense live demo. Attendees are exhorted to anticipate and tend to their needs as well as make arrangements for aftercare. We are not offering a “safe space.” The experience we seek to co-create with participants is, rather, rooted in risk, tension, the abject, and the un-settling.
