Secrets to selling your design services is an interactive performance demonstrating the seducing aspects of buying and selling design services. Design duo Xsenofemme will invite the audience to join them in a live negotiation process, which will ideally result in the signing of a contract, and the formalization of a sale.
Design exists because of a very elemental human need to satisfy a certain desire for beauty, a lust for forms, a pleasure derived from owning. Design fairs like Salone del Mobile, become places where designers sell themselves more than their objects, since objects alone are not enough anymore for the voracious audience. They are used to selling parts of their corporeal identity such as specialized crafts, unique techniques, and the overall invisible physical choreography of labor behind their projects. The deepest desire of the designer becomes the one to be owned, to be bought just like its objects. The designers' financial dream is represented by the buyer, who expresses the complementary desire to own, to buy. The designer and the buyer, then enter in a waltz of negotiating ownership.

The first church on Earth, 2019
The first Church on Earth questions what a de-institutionalized church would be like. The first Church on Earth was activated in three different modalities: a market of unwanted things and thoughts, as a confessional would work; a shelter for political asylum and protection, especially needed in the Netherlands where people in a condition of homelessness cannot occupy public space; and a place for contemplation, which became a vacant Dj-set and meditation space. Going around the city with the structure I built eventually revealed many loopholes in regulations and autonomy: the church-as-shelter would allow those in a condition of homelessness to sleep in the streets without getting fined, opening the possibility of using rituals as political tools.
