In the imagined absence of the master, we begin to dream. We ask what flows when power is no longer centralized? Who do we become when we are no longer subjects? What does liberation sound like, feel like, perform like?

What unfolds is a utopia – unstable and tender. We take the stage, not to be understood, but to live our truths. In the master’s absence, a void opens – and we fill it not with domination, but with joy, solidarity, laughter and mischief. We do not crown a new master; we attempt to dissolve mastery itself.

Our tools are softness, play, refusal and tenderness. We try to reimagine the throne and its queer splendor, it becomes something else – unfixed, shifting, full of potential.

This is not a revolution of violence; it is an invitation to resist through togetherness. To reclaim space through imagination. To perform a world that is constantly becoming. This is a utopia we cannot hold – but one we must keep rehearsing.
