“The unraveling of a torment: you have to begin somewhere”
An exchange of thoughts between Eva Jacobs, Jana Coorevits, and others. Eva opens the conversation using the words of others, Jana picks up the thread while looking at Eva’s work.
“The unraveling of a torment: you have to begin somewhere:
the colour blue, the damage is repairable,” wrote Louise Bourgeois.
“Here is the beginning of necessary violence,” responds Kathy Acker.
Jana Coorevits
“The damage is repairable” – I think of your frayed black jumpers. The woven photograph of your mother hanging above them moved me. What affected me most was the act of weaving itself: slowly and carefully building an image, undertaking a journey with a photographic image, and in doing so, giving it new meaning.
Your mother’s gaze was once directed at the camera. Yet during the weaving process, as you reinterpreted the photographic image, her gaze gradually shifted towards you. You look at each other. For me, this dialogue or connection is created through the action you take in making your image.
“I was once foolish enough to believe knowledge would clarify, but some things are so gauzed between layers of syntax and semantics, behind days and hours, names forgotten, salvaged and shed, that simply knowing the wound exists does nothing to reveal it.” (Ocean Vuong)
When I look at your work, it feels as though I gain access to a mental landscape, where images aren’t formed through language and thought. Is weaving for you a way of revealing?
Every thread I wove began to introduce itself to me as a new part of my mother that I needed to identify and acknowledge. It was as if, through this process, I was attempting to unfold her existence. By weaving the threads into a new, ordered pattern, I felt like I was indeed revealing her. As though this was my way of getting to know her better and giving her a more comfortable place in my life.
Unravelling my mother’s mannerisms to their deepest depths turned out to be an impossible task. Yet, for a brief moment, I thought I could manage it. Slowly, weaving became a journey into the wilderness that my mother represents.
Weaving meant confronting her. Only on days when I was filled with pride could I do this without debris. The woven pieces formed into physical and silent testimonies of a grieving process. Each piece now presents itself as a portrait of my mother, censored by my own gaze. It’s impossible to capture her without myself, let alone understand her.
“There is a process of self-censorship, perhaps unconscious, of what should be spoken and what remains unsaid, what should be seen and what is left for interpretation,” says Iman Mersal in the book How to Mend: Motherhood and Its Ghosts.
Weaving became my language of processing. In that sense, weaving was emotionally heavy. I had to begin by looking my mother in the eye. Naming our relationship with the right words. Picking at hardened scabs. Unravelling mended jumpers. Accepting the damage and hemming it in. This, it turns out, is the real task.
“How do other mothers appear to their children? What is it you see, or don’t see, in a picture of a mother who belongs to you?” This is the question Mersal asks herself. It’s a question that lingers steadfastly in my mind. “How do mothers appear to their children?”
My mother looks at me straight and piercingly in the face.
JC
“Today I’m wearing my mother’s shirt.
Today I’m wearing my mother’s dress.
Today I’m wearing my grandmother’s scarf.”
In a journal, you document how you wear your mother’s and grandmother’s clothes for a while. After your grandmother’s passing, you spend four days in her house, wearing her clothes and lying in the same positions she often assumed during your conversations. You place the camera where you once sat during those talks.
In response to the question, “How do mothers appear to their children?” you seem to be formulating an answer through a game of gazes, where you embody one of the threecharacters in your story. You not only explore how it feels to receive their gaze, standing in their shoes and wearing their clothes, but also how it feels to observe them from a distance, with a medium (photography, weaving) acting as a buffer. Whether you are looking at them or at yourself becomes blurred; you merge into a single body.
InWhat I Loved, Siri Hustvedt writes: “The world passes through us – food, books, pictures, other people. (…) ‘Mixing’ is a key term. It explains what people rarely talk about, because we define ourselves as isolated, closed bodies who bump up against each other but stay shut. Descartes is wrong. It isn’t: I think therefore I am. It’s: I am because you are.”This merging becomes tangible in your work. When I look at the image above, I don’t just think of you and your grandmother, but of all the mother-daughter relationships that came before. Of the conversations that could or couldn’t take place, and how each story leaves out as much as it reveals.
“Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on.” (Mary Oliver)
I hear Jacques Douai singing:

AYATURU, 20:30 — Kelderzaal
AYATARU is the world created by drummer/producer Thijs van Scharen. He blends his love for beats, beat making and deep groove, with influences ranging from UK breakbeat and the avant-garde hiphop scene of LA, IDM and spiritual jazz. All wrapped up in rich textures and warm sounds. Catching the moment as it comes and create new worlds where the head nod and dancing meets the deep thoughts within. This collage where each composition is a different scene, a different vibration can be viewed as a film – where the listener is guided through and can create their own narrative.

Robin Lambrecht, Andreas Duchi, Jeane Flo, IKARO, BRINESconcertAgendaArtistic activitiesRobin Lambrecht, 17:30 — Turbinezaal
The music of Robin Lambrecht and his band is a fusion of post-rock and jazz, through set compositions with room for emotive improvisation. The band he gathers under his own name is a group of people close to his heart, which is key to sincerely conveying and sharing emotion within his compositions. The focus is on lyrical themes, the blurred line between composition and improvisation and to what extent instrumental music can be narrative. Robin's compositions have been described by others as cinematic, atmospheric, narrative, energetic and to dream away. This sums up what the project aims at; to make the listener dream away, both in a live and listening context, as would happen with a good book, series or film.
Roel Delplancke (drums), Stanzi Cresens (cello), Jesse Vandecaetsbeek (keys), Ruben Van Hijfte (bass), Robin Lambrecht (guitar)
Andreas Duchi, 18:30 — Turbinezaal
In an intimate setting, Andreas Duchi delves into the soulful resonance of the bass guitar. Whether sculpting melodies solo or in duet, his music beckons the listener into a realm of tenderness and warmth, imbued with a touch of mystique that lingers in the air. Join him on a journey where each strum is an invitation to explore the depths of musical expression.
Andreas Duchi (bass), Didier Deruytter (vocals)
Jeane Flo, 19:30 — Turbinezaal
Get ready for a musical explosion with Jeane Flo! Our band delivers a dynamic mix of powerful riffs, refreshing melodies and irresistible grooves that grab you from the very first chord. With a unique combination of influences from classic rock, funk and hard rock, we bring a contemporary twist to the genre. Get carried away by our energetic sound and experience a musical journey with Jeane Flo!
Maxime Aerts (guitar), Catherine Denayer (drums), Noah De Matos (bass), Lucas Heytens (keys), Heleen Desmet (lead vocal), Lisa Baert, Louke Vandorpe, Indira Bergmans (backing vocals)
IKARO, 20:30 — Kelderzaal
Ikaro was born from a shared love of (ethio)jazz, dub and afrobeat. Throw into the mix: feathery horns with a solid jazz background, a generous dash of rakia (fruit brandy, popular in the Balkans), a lavish dose of cutting guitar and bass riffs and energetic percussion, and a highly danceable and slightly mysterious sound is born. They performed on the Jonge Wolven stage at Trefpunt during the past Gentse Feesten, were among the East Flemish selection for Sound Track and whistlingly unite many jazz and rock lovers along the way.
Nele Vernaillen (flute), Cedric Haeck (bass), Kamiel Bossuyt (guitar), Bartas Boots (saxophone and kalimba), Oya Bakiroglu (darbuka, conga, bongo), Ferre Heyvaerts (drums)
BRINES, 21:30 — Turbinezaal
When Justine Rotsaert and Dave Lantsoght traded the Knokse beach for the rehearsal room, it soon produced sparks, which Dave skilfully channelled into fat beats and cutting electric guitar work. Combined with Justine's sultry voice, they arrived at a unique sound that no fresh North Sea dive could match.

Wannes, Nautilus, I MALATI, Ruben Van Hijfte (feat. HAVAN), Toon Putteman TrioconcertAgendaArtistic activitiesWannes, 17:30 — Turbinezaal
Wannes, as the only band member, will transform the stage into a musical laboratory where groovy beats and the sound of his guitar merge into a unique improvisational experience. During this performance, Wannes will take the audience on a journey where he utters every note like a story and considers every beat an adventure. Prepare for an evening full of surprises and musical discoveries, as Wannes is ready to transcend the boundaries of the familiar and add a new dimension to the concept of "live performance".
Wannes (Guitar, Bass, Keyboard, Drum computer)
Nautilus, 18:30 — Kelderzaal
Nautilus is four musicians embarking on a vessel exploring their inner self. The music written is a reflection on certain emotions or conditions one might encounter and is a personal musical interpretation of such feelings and struggles. Life is unpredictable and we must be prepared for any circumstances good or bad coming our way. The Nautilus created by Jules Verne is now heading towards yet another mysterious universe. The only one place human beings often fear. The inner self.
Arnaud Guichard (Tenor Sax), Leonard Steigerwald (piano), Otto Kint (double bass), Mattia Gobbo (drums)
I MALATI, 19:30 — Turbinezaal
The experimental octet I Malati brings on the stage an intriguing blend of rock suggestions and free improvisation, poetry and brutality. It is evidently a complex language with intricate layers of sound, rich thematic variety and colorful kaleidoscopic weaves of melodic and rhythmic textures. However, the obliqueness of the meta-theatrical voice, the melodic sweetness and the fiery projection of the blowers, the roughness of the distorted guitar lead the listener to a raw human dimension, providing a fascinating contrast and enriching the emotional narration of the music.
Nathan Isahakyan (spoken voice), Luís Melo (clarinet), Loïs Pluymers (alto), Arnaud Guichard (tenor), Gonçalo Oliveira (electric guitar), Francisco Morato (electric bass), Mattia Gobbo (drums), Aleksandar Škorić (percussions).
Ruben Van Hijfte (feat. HAVAN), 20:30 — Kelderzaal
Rhythmic smiles, heartfelt lyrics, and a hefty dose of Hindustani Classical to fill up your love tank ^^.
Hanne Dollery (piano, guitar, vocals), Robin Lambrecht (guitar), Nathan Goessens (drums), Oya Bakiroglu (doholla), Seppe Vermeiren (sitar)
Toon Putteman Trio, 21:30 — Turbinezaal
Toon believes that the best music is created in the moment of total surrender. To reach this point, there must be a rock-solid form of trust and curiosity within a group. For this, he looked for musicians who have spent countless hours in rehearsal rooms with a passion for improvisation and a singular vision. Spurred on by his current teacher Lander Gyselinck, Toon writes compositions that are a reconciliation between contemporary jazz, free improvisation and the occasional touch of electronica. Each composition is seen as a blank canvas. In it, they search for the limits of both the musical framework, their own creativity, physical possibilities, the musicians' ears and the audience's ears. Expect an adventurous concert in which three young musicians, connected by their love of jazz, interact, improvise and create through their instruments.Toon Rumen (bass), Thibaut Deryckere (piano), Toon Putteman (drums)

Disarming Design from Palestine
Disarming Design from Palestine (DDfP) is an independent non-profit organisation that operates as a design label and learning platform. Their mission is to foster thought-provoking design from Palestine by developing and distributing useful products that share poetic and political statements. Often rooted in experiences from everyday life in occupied Palestine, the items serve as cultural artefacts that catalyse conversations. Disarming Design is a collective based in Sint Pieters Leeuw, Belgium. Their work has been featured in De Appel, Amsterdam, Decoratelier, Brussels and Pianofabriek, Brussels.
United Screens for Palestine
United Screens for Palestine is an open and decentralised collective of programmers, cultural workers and venues. They are responding to the paralysis brought about by the ongoing genocide as well as the increasing policing, censorship and criminalisation of everything Palestinian. They aim to make each screening a space for conversation, learning and most of all, mobilisation. And they firmly believe that to present these films is to insist that witnessing is an active process, far beyond the act of watching. Ultimately, they build on long-standing global film initiatives which serve as platforms for substantive discussions and an earnest exploration of the historical narrative of Palestine.

LINKSE GAATJES, KASK DramadramaAgendaArtistic activitiesS. is een linkse trut, een Becky, een lief DeMorgen-meisje. Ze drinkt haar koffie met havermelk en koopt alleen haar ondergoed nieuw. En ze houdt van daten. “Blijf swipen, zo leren we je smaak kennen!” Maar wat als je rechts per ongeluk niet naar links swipet, maar naar rechts? Swipet rechts, links altijd naar links? Soms is links en rechts toch een match, en S. ontmoet A., B., en C.
Ik wil je zo hard doen wanneer we niet overeenkomen.
Wil je in mijn mond spugen?
Je hebt gelijk dat je me naar rechts hebt geswiped.
Je hebt gelijk dat ik soms een beetje fel ben.
Je kent me eigenlijk al door en door.
Daarom mis ik je ook zo hard.
S. had een date burn-out en besloot haar leven te beteren en de wereld te depolariseren. Ze is namelijk een heel goed mens. Ze nam veertien interviews af, kwam kletsen op de zetel bij ‘de rechtse man’ in zijn vele soorten en maten: van vissers tot politici tot mariniers. Ze ontdekte dat vrouwen soms ook rechts zijn (zij vonden de Barbie film wel goed gelukt). Ze dronk thee met politieke Romeo en Julia’s in Nederland en België en sprak over hartzeer met gepolariseerde exen. En ze sprak ook zichzelf.
"Twee geloven op een kussen, daar slaapt de duivel tussen. En wie zegt dat ik een kussen wil delen? Ik wil mijn eigen fucking kussen."

FoyerTV | S1:E1 | Pilot, KASK DramadramaAgendaArtistic activitiesFive theatre-makers and a camerawoman try to provide an answer to an excess of content-less pastime through a sitcom about twenty-somethings. As they fight content with more content, the line between fact and fiction blurs. With Pilot, FoyerTV touches on the growing sense of anxiety in our time; fear of being forgotten, of missing something, of being expendable or unsuccessful. In this way, FoyerTV portrays a generation immersed in the images that surround them: from home video to Hollywood, from philosopher Mark Fisher to Friends.

FoyerTV is a metamodern instagram account managed by a changing group of theatre makers who create reports around performances in the foyer.
On 22.06.2024, the performance will be followed by a subsequent 'closing statement' for the drama section of Graduation 2024.

Mad Mulish Man, Reinert Creve Trio, AntheconcertAgendaArtistic activitiesMad Mulish Man, 18:30
Inspired by both his classical and jazz background, Wodan Onkelinx wrote his compositions with movement in mind. Together with his talented band, he moves effortlessly from tranquillity to exuberance in the set. Expect a concert that feels like a trip straight ahead with an abrupt digression here and there.
Warre Van de Putte (tenor sax), Wodan Onkelinx (piano), Toon Rumen (double bass), Toon Putteman (drums)
Reinert Creve Trio, 20:00
The Reinert Creve Trio is the first project in which pianist Reinert Creve comes to the fore and shows his most personal side. Reinert's compositions are based on the principle that music arises from honesty and simplicity. This is reflected in the music the trio makes. Together with Toon Putteman on drums and Ruben Verbeeck on double bass, they explore how simplicity and lyricism can tell a story. In this way, they try to reflect their own interpretation within contemporary jazz in a way where improvisation and communication are central.
Reinert Creve (piano), Toon Putteman (drums), Ruben Verbeeck (double bass)
Anthe, 21:30
Originally from Bilzen in Limburg, Anthe Huybrechts — or Anthe for short — developed an unconditional love for the acoustic piano. Her way of playing and writing is influenced by her classical music training in her younger years. New influences, more experience and self-discovery fuel her musical world and lead to an intense, intriguing sound of her own with fairy-like melodies and personal lyrics in which influences such as Agnes Obel, Kate Bush, AURORA and even Björk can be traced. With her velvet voice, unforced piano playing and her own collection of samples and prepared piano sounds, Anthe immerses you in hopeful dreams.
Anthe Huybrechts (leadzang & toetsen), Luna Maes (achtergrondzang & toetsen), Stanzi Cresens (cello)
