Chasing the sun - Eliisabet
Last night
when the ocean was dark
and the sun had set
I ran across the road
climbed over the rocks
breathed in the salt
I laughed and gasped
in the midst of the water's crushing force
melted into one with the foam
unable to escape from myself
so instead I melt into myself
and stopped for a moment
to breathe
Somewhere on the shore in the dark
my people are sitting there
listening to the deep sky
So I turn
and walk slowly
towards their homely hearts
Chasing the Sun is a poetic and compelling solo performance in which Eliisabet weaves together music, acrobatics and storytelling. Don’t expect a classical concert or a traditional circus show: as she plays and narrates, Eliisabet moves through the Olevodroom, amongst and above the audience. With live violin, loops, sound effects and aerial acrobatics, a unique experience is created in which music, movement and human connection come together. An intimate and surprising performance.
Suncharmdub @ Olevodroom x Arty-Party
Suncharmdub is a group of friends from Leuven and the surrounding area who bring people together through music and a friendly atmosphere. With their homemade sound system, they fill the Olevodroom with warm dub sounds and create a unique atmosphere. Expect great music, lovely encounters and an evening where everyone is welcome.
At the same time, Arty Party invites you to become part of a work of art in motion. Join in painting a shared canvas and experience a surprising performance in which visuals, music and movement merge. As the evening unfolds, so does the artwork. In this way, the Olevodroom transforms into a creative meeting place where visitors don’t just watch, but also help to create. No experience is needed, but curiosity is a must.
