In collaboration with the Shoreditch Arts Club, Urania is launching its new fragrance, Flowerotica.
Flowerotica, the centerpiece of the evening, is inspired by the secret codes of nature. It captures the tension between seduction and survival—where beauty not only attracts, but also protects. The scent is rooted in indole, a naturally occurring molecule in flowers that serves a dual purpose: luring pollinators while deterring predators. It’s an olfactory journey through danger, desire, and the will to survive.
To mark the launch, we’ve invited a lineup of brilliant creatives who will be the highlight of the night.
Meet the artists behind this unforgettable evening.
The Artists
Rad Husak is a dynamic and innovative mixed-media artist based in London. Radek's work captures movement while observing the traces left behind. This innovative approach redefines printmaking, embracing glitches, entropy, and digital manipulations that provoke thought and challenge perception.
Marilia practice is based on painting, drawing, and collage and incorporates mixed media techniques. Marilia exhibits both throughout the UK and internationally and has shown artwork at the ICA as part of the show "Bloomberg New Contemporaries", Liverpool Biennale, Athens Bienalle, Artoramaand amongst varied galleries and museums.
Callum is a costume designer based in East London, exploring the synergy between textiles, queerness, performance, and hedonism. Callum utilises disposed materials to creatively repurpose them into fantastical garments, through his far-reaching ideas into the more obscure corners of his imagination. His projects explore theatrical costume, queer clubwear and camp iconography.
The Performers
Coming from the snowy mountains of Switzerland Perle Rare is rich in talent. She is a London based Draglesque performer whose tits are known globally. Perle is a rare breed, bringing the sexy and silly together in a titalising way which will leave you feeling aroused and amused. Never one to look out of place be it showgirling onstage, hosting events or producing sell out shows.
Luca Asta is a French-Italian visual artist living and working in London. They graduated in 2019 in ‘Contemporary Art Practice’ at the Royal College of Art, with a practice of video, photography, sculpture, writing and performance. Asta’s recent works have been looking at the psychosocial construction of the body, with a specific interest in structural and internalised oppressions. They are actively engaged in dismantling binary and heteronormative oppression through intimate and confrontational works.
Zara Hudson-Kozdoj is a Polish-Jamaican cellist, composer and conductor. Born and bred in North London, she was awarded a scholarship and bursary to study at the Royal College of Music where she completed both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in Cello Performance and Conducting. This summer she completed a residency at Studio Richter-Mahr (an opportunity given to her by Max Richter and Yulia Mahr for emerging artists) where she recorded her debut album.
Blending uplifting sounds with pockets of darker shades and introspective moments, SWU FM resident Someone Sunny evokes connection on the dancefloor, creating mirrors for the full spectrum of feeling through their selections and on-point mixing. Such mirrors include house, breaks, techno, speed garage, bass, electro and left- field experimental textures, with plenty of curveballs along the way too. These genres have informed the Twisted Festival resident’s storied blueprint, as broadcast on Rinse FM, Rinse France, NTS Radio and more.
