The Four Chances: Bibs, Cakes, Eggs & HeartsThis super four from four corners brings diverse flavours to the biromiro kiosk. Brass, textile, cardboard, ceramics, icing, thread, silver, cream and ping-pong balls mingle to form chance encounters amongst the magazines, newspapers and lottery cards of this renovated space.

Why stick with second chances when you can have four?
Join us for coffee, scratch cards, jewels and a Cake Luck event.

Jana Brevick as activator produces protection and glimmer…a tool, a fashion device, neckwear, a trouble starter. Like any safety feature, Party Bibs accelerate your situation.

LMC muses over the muse that is menopause, and the rollercoaster of hormones that mess with everything in their path. When will I lay my last egg? Grab a frying pan, navigate the brain fog and hop on the night-sweat infested ride in a fatigued car crawling to the other side of the reproductivity pool.

Diana Kirdeeva presents: 𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚓𝚎𝚌𝚝 𝚅𝙳. 𝚋𝚛𝚘𝚘𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚜. 𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚝. Distorted heart brooches are taking shape by folding back to resemble what they once were. They are meant to skirt on the edge of a garment hiding their complexity and teasing up the sensibilities.

Cake Luck, uniquely individual sculptural cakes made by Theresa Wingert, have natural ingredients and your three prompt words. Inspiration comes from untamed landscapes, moonlit gardens, undergrowth on a forgotten forest path, mossy fragments clinging to old stone, soft winds moving through morning coastal fog. Cake acts as a flavor portal, balancing a delicate altar and a galaxy yet to bloom.

The Four Chances are Jana Brevick, Laila Marie Costa, Diana Kirdeeva and Theresa Wingert:

Jana Brevick grabs whatever tool or material she can to get the idea across—hammers, lasers, fine metals, textiles, commandeered objects—and extracts the balance between funny and sublime. Jana’s delight is saying yes to chances and learning through the process. Toggling between Spain and Seattle after earning her MASieraad/PXL-MAD in Belgium, she takes normal things, like bibs, and twists them into extraordinary experiences.

Laila Marie Costa, driven by life’s absurdity & banality, plays with notions of gender politics, punk, her Italian heritage and neurodiversity. Menopause, a gift that keeps giving, feeds her wearable creations that aim to educate, advocate and confound. Spreading her eggs, LMC makes assemblages, video and zines. Awarded BA and Graduate Diploma, Melbourne, and MA in Visual Art via MASieraad at PXL-MAD, Belgium, 2023.

Diana Kirdeeva, a former scientist and an aspiring maker, was born in Belarus, lived in the US, and moved to Belgium a few years ago. Coming to Belgium and graduating from PXL/MASieraad marked the beginning of a new career path. Diana considers it an experimental zone to re-envision and re-interpret the fundamentals, letting curiosity lead the way.

Theresa Wingert is an American multidisciplinary artist whose work involves experience-design, sculptural ceramics, filmmaking and inventive culinary arts. Drawn to the interplay of structure and spontaneity, she orchestrates projects that weave together diverse forms of creative expression, resulting in immersive experiences that engage the senses and translate ideas into spaces, objects, or engagements.
