Sex: A Tell-all Exhibition

TOURING

The questions teenagers have about sexuality are as legitimate as they are diverse. Structured into five themed zones, this interactive exhibition answers over 100 basic questions about sexuality in an open and positive fashion.

Zone 2: Me

Sexuality is part of me from the moment I am born. Through sexuality, I learn to form bonds and to love, I build my identity, and my body changes. All of this prepares me for an important moment: the encounter with “the other.”


What are girls like? What are boys like?

Two photographic frescos document the successive changes in the human body—in all its fragile beauty—through every stage of life, from birth to old age.

What happens to me during puberty?

With this sound processor you can experience what it’s like when your voice breaks. Nearby, you’ll find a humorous video on the five distressing stages of puberty (hair growth, acne, body odour, etc.).

Am I comfortable with who I am?

Find out whether your perception of yourself matches reality in front of this talking mirror that deforms your appearance.

Who am I really attracted to?

Homosexual and bisexual people relate how they became aware of their sexual orientation.
