Toon Fibbe is interested in the principle characters in myths, legends and stories about the city in relation to everyday reality. For some time now he has been working on a project that refers to loners such as the well-known Rotterdam street musician Koperen Ko. During the exhibition Fibbe’s one-man orchestra beats the big drum every day in the street. Fibbe is studying at the Piet Zwart Institute Rotterdam.
The performances by artist Ieke Trinks are far from theatrical and might rather be termed interventions that differ very slightly from what we regard as commonplace. In TENT there are nine tables on which she performs the same simple action each week, which are nonetheless always slightly different.
In his performances, Yoeri Guépin examines his mental and physical limits by undertaking absurd challenges. Guépin graduated from the HKU Utrecht in 2010 with a series of registrations of performances that seem to have arisen out of extreme boredom. The starting point for his performances in TENT is the memory of a piece of music by Bach that he often played on his cello as a child.
The work of performer and choreographer Camilla Milena Fehér (Berlin/Amsterdam) is on the threshold between visual art, dance and music. She finished DasArts, a residential Master of Theatre, in 2011. In TENT Fehér works with dancer Amaranta Velarde González in an intensive ten-day process towards a final try-out.
