In PROTESTENCIL the public compose and print their own poster using the high impact stencils created by Teresa Sdralevich. Bold and simple images, inspiring words and abstract forms come together in never ending combinations, transforming participants into instant designers. In IMPRIMERUE // DRUKKER STRAAT she applies the same principle, but this time uses the street’s surface as the base on which to print.

Workshop

Free School

13/05/2022 — 15/05/2022

For several years the Free School has been a central project of the festival. It is a space to imagine new ways of thinking together through artistic practice; a temporary school in which we experiment, produce, and transmit knowledge together.

This edition of the Free School explores a discipline as specific as it is complex: music. More than just an art form, music has always been a meeting place and – in its possible messages and essential structure – a way of thinking.

Performance

RAAG TIME MACHINE (day)

CARTE BLANCHE TO CASIMIR LIBERSKI

13/01/2019

For this performance I will elaborate on the concept of Ragas (scales from Indian classical music) in their association with the twenty-four-hour cycle of the day. Each particular Raga has a preferred time of the day that it is being sung or played.

There is a natural relationship between certain note frequencies and human emotions and psyche according to specific hours and seasons. These notes have been organized into melodic modes and constitute a framework for improvisation.

RAINBOW

09/07/2018 — 13/07/2018

Rainbow is a performance that questions identity and its multiple facets. In a solo on stage several characters appear in dialogue with each other – like a rainbow they are formed by reflection, refraction and dispersion of sunlight on raindrops. Nazanin Fakoor affirms that we all are the result of an infinity of reflections or refractions of the encounters that we make during our life, and this from the beginning, with our first meeting – that with our family. Our identity is plural.

Je: a young woman alone at home moves her furniture around, eventually pushing it against the wall and laying down on the floor. Tu: while eating sugar with a teaspoon, she writes letters. The days pass, the pages accumulate. Il: after several weeks spent tearing up and starting the letters anew, she goes out at night and meets a trucker. He talks about himself, about desire, about his relationship to women. Elle: in the middle of the night, the girl goes to a woman friend, who first rejects her, then shares her meal and bed with her.
