Holektiv: MASS.K
We are affected by images that surround us and despite all our efforts to be original we have become unified within the mass of other beings. Eva Stará’s performance project, MASS.K, explores the theme of one’s self-confidence and identity, examining means that help us feel ourselves instead of meeting other people’s expectations.
The performance is part of the ALTA tours and community program at DOCK organized by Crestyl.
Helena Araújo: My gentle wild squirts
My gentle wild squirts boldly explores the full potential of the female voice – its vulnerability, kink, strength, and sensitivity. It seeks to break through the silencing labels imposed by society and release everything that needs to come to the surface. Inspired by the ideals of Radical Softness, Helena Araujo traces their roots through singing and growling – creating an emotional feast that spills over into a raw and transformative performance at the intersection of dance, theatre, and poetry.
DetailPiNKBUS platform: PiNKBUS
As part of Queer Joy, PiNKBUS brings a new wave of young queer creatives to ALTA. This project connects the underground scene with established professionals, drawing on the tradition of Prague’s cabarets and variety shows – now spiced up with the rising phenomenon of drag queens. It opens up themes of sexuality, embodiment, and freedom, creating a space that is both playful and political.
DetailLeire de Meer: Breast Weight Lifting
What can breasts do? An artist with nonbinary breasts (and a future mastectomy) “trains” their chest like a bodybuilder, lifting progressively heavier household items using only their breasts in a deadpan parody of strength competitions.
DetailQUEER JOY / day 1
Radiant and unapologetic!
A celebration of queerness and a space for diverse experiences and free expression. We want to be together, to be seen and heard – without limits or fear, beyond the narrow frame of tolerated emotions. Ball, drag, performance, dance, and politics. A festivity of queer existence in all its shades – from rage and tenderness to unrestrained laughter.

Leire de Meer: Common body
What happens when you close your eyes and stop perceiving others through sight?
Common body is a series of participatory experiences that challenge visual and gender norms, opening space for sensing the body through touch, sound, and movement. Without sight, the need to categorize and divide disappears. A space emerges for non-binary mutuality, where individual bodies dissolve into one shared, collective body.
Eduard Adam Orszulik: Another EAO’s solo
Another EAO’s solo is a performance without fixed form. Raw, queer, never the same. Dance and sound as vibrations of truth, nature, and emotions that cannot be grasped – only passed through the body. The body exhausts itself. And exhaustion becomes the limit. A moment of impact when no normative principles can help.
DetailPerVision Kollektive: Construction on the perVy site
Who will take care of an unforgettable finale to Queer Joy day 1? Meet PerVision, a strip performance collective from Saxony! We strip, we host, and we connect you with a spicy mix of entertainment and body art.
Followed by party with DJ Mt. Florida.

DetailEAT & SHARE with iCoDaCo
We invite you to join a shared lunch with the dancers from the iCoDaCo project. These informal gatherings offer space to meet, exchange, inspire, and listen – and also to talk about what’s currently resonating on the dance scene, what’s puzzling us, and what keeps us awake at night. Sometimes the format will lean more towards a workshop, other times towards open conversation – the shape remains flexible. These lunches are a space for dialogue, support, insight, and questions – both big and small. Your references, experiences, perspectives – or simply your presence – are valuable tools in building a stronger and more inclusive dance community.
