IK BEN EEN AANTAL

IK BEN EEN AANTAL is an exploration of our identity and how it is not unambiguous and clear but wild and complex. The research focuses specifically on singing and voice, in combination with text and movement using improvisation methods by Pauline Oliveiros and Viewpoints Technique, among others. How can you form a common, inner voice as a local community?

Through an Open Call, participants from the area can apply for workshops. Participants are challenged to share something of their inner experience around the theme of ‘productivity’. Work, burnout, body are keywords in this edition. When are we productive, what does that understanding mean and when can we leave that never-ending pressure behind and make room for creativity and emotion?

During the presentation, the audience will be immersed in a short demonstration of the process, in which they are invited to participate as well. The process becomes documented and part of a composition and movement structure developed – and ever-growing – by the artist.

Marjolein van der Meer developed this project during residencies at Het Huis Utrecht, Fresh AIR Berlin and De Grote Post in Ostend, among others.
