Exactly ten years ago, in the summer of 2014, MU opened its doors wide for GENDERBLENDER, an exhibition focusing on gender diversity. Fleur Pierets and her wife Julian, driving forces behind the magazine Et Alors?, made the accompanying publication of the same name. Soon after, they began 22-The Project, a performative relay in which they planned to marry in every country that allows same-sex marriage. After four ceremonies, including one in the Netherlands, the project ends in January 2018 with Julian's death.
In all her work, she tries to capture the present time and how it functions at the level of equal rights. Through observation and documentation, 562 shows how the world changes, evolves and sometimes folds back.
