FACE/LESS by DAR

FACE/LESS by DAR invites you into a space where identity dissolves. SECRET visitors SECRET hosts FACE/LESS is a night where u can be anyone. We invite u to dance, to watch, to listen and to loosen up. DJs, performance art and installations come together to create a fully immersive environment. Dress code is essential: Masks, face paint, or any face covering (u should not be easily recognizable). Through this, the space transforms — allowing everyone, including urself, to move freely in expression. Who is DAR? DAR (gift, home). DAR is nobody. It does not have a fixed identity, nor a clear origin. It exists as a manifestation of the current world state — displaced, fragmented, constantly reshaped by borders, screens, and systems that try to define us. We are pushed to construct identity in the internet dimension: to brand ourselves, pick sides, labels, masks. FACE/LESS invites u into the physical dimension instead. Outcasts are welcome. Set within OT301, Studio Krai presents an all-encompassing scenography throughout the space. Premiering their first work as a set-design studio, they stage spatial interventions that immerse the audience in an environment of mystery, concealment and shifting perception — inspired by the concept of DAR. Meet the artists: KAVIER is an experimental electronic artist from Cyprus, now based in Amsterdam. An upcoming presence in the city’s underground, RAqS resident and a mind-blowing producer. Their sound combines heavy bass, hard-hitting drums and chaotic drops, drifting between dubstep, breaks, funk, deconstructed club and trap. YoungWoman is everyone’s favorite woman. A rigorous sonic maximalist who thrives at the intersection of many musical realms while transcending them all. Her explosive energy combined with an irresistible playfulness leaves audiences spellbound. Named one of the top DJ talents in the Netherlands two years running, she has performed at Rewire Festival, Down The Rabbit Hole, De School, C12, Garage Noord and more. No matter what music u like, u will dance. DIVO is a Lebanese/Ukrainian artist based in Amsterdam’s experimental club circuit working across DJ sets, live electronics, and performance. Locally labeled as the “emo dj Amsterdam final boss,” their sound moves through experimental, high-BPM club music with constant twists and turns. They have performed at Garage Noord, Paradiso, Club NYX and more. Manolis Elijah Sueuga (Sueuga / Sueuga Kamau) is an interdisciplinary artist raised in Oakland, California. Beginning in hardcore bands and producing for the reggaetoneras of Neoperreo, their work now spans poetry, live sound installations, and performance. With releases on Infinite Machine, NAAFI, and Soul Feeder, Sueuga creates tense, atmospheric compositions reconfiguring personal trauma. They have presented work with Boiler Room, HÖR Berlin, NTS Radio, and performed internationally including MASS MoCA and Cafe OTO. Performances: An Szopa embodies a grotesque spell against reality. Through dance and sacred eroticism, they shapeshift between confession and drag, tenderness and provocation — embracing distortion as a means of sabotage. Insta HORSIE (PL, 1988) is a puppet master — pulling the strings, making the protagonist dance as if there’s no tomorrow. A graduate of the National Academy of Dramatic Art in Białystok, Poland, his work focuses on manually animating still objects, directing plays, and performing. He has performed internationally in France, Germany, and Poland, and was part of Fringe Festival 2024 and the 2025 Grand Finale. Studio Krai (set design + decor) Premiering their first work as a set-design studio, Klub Krai founders present Studio Krai — an experimental practice staging spatial interventions in and beyond club spaces. For DAR, Studio Krai proposes an all-encompassing scenography throughout OT301, fully immersing the audience in an environment that invokes mystery, hiding, and transformation.
