LINE-UP:
KAREN WILLEMS, ROMKE KLEEFSTRA & JAN KLEEFSTRA – IT Part III
MARIEKE VAN DE VEN
MARIEKE VAN DE VEN
Marieke van de Ven makes sound walks, podcasts, audio stories, electroacoustic compositions and field recordings. She is inspired by sounds from her environment. Sounds from nature or the city; a rattling gear, a falling glass. By listening carefully to these sounds she investigates the musicality and stories within these sounds are hidden. At the intersection of concrete sounds, text, interviews and field recordings, Marieke explores the relationship between sound and story. In addition to autonomous compositions and audio stories, Marieke works as a composer and sound designer together with choreographers, dancers, writers and theater makers.
ROMKE KLEEFSTRA & JAN KLEEFSTRA
IT DEEL is the multi-year project of the Kleefstra Bros together with Popfabryk; production house for Frisian pop culture.
For IT DEEL III the Kleefstra Bros have entered into a collaboration with the Belgian multi-instrumentalist Karen Willems. Together they worked in the Thomaskerk in Katlijk on new material that was released on vinyl by Moving Furniture Records.
The Kleefstra Bros are poet Jan Kleefstra and guitarist Romke Kleefstra. Based on a deeply felt mission, the makers want to create awareness of the universal connection between people and nature and use the means available to them to this end: poetry and music.
The Belgian multi-instrumentalist Karen Willems is active in various fields. She started as a drummer in rock and pop groups such as Zita Swoon. With a number of musicians she built a tradition in improvised music and sound art. Just like the Kleefstra Bros, Karen Willems is intrigued by the forest’s landscapes and nature – that can be heard in her work.
