Silent afternoon with movie

May 2023

Live sound performance with my musical instruments to accompany a silent film.

To give the deaf residents in our center a gesture, we are organizing a silent film in collaboration with d’Academie Beeld and Doof Vlaanderen. This movie will be accompanied by a sign language workshop where people will receive an initiation in communication in sign language.

This afternoon is for everyone, both residents of the center and everyone else!

Indicating the time I am in, in my very own calendar.

The year 2023 started by designing a postmark rubberstamp for each period – or orientation point [Reg:] as I call it – in the annual calendar.
