Quentin Stokart brings the impro community together. Improvisation is an honest search — listening and responding to one another. Together and with strength. A monthly evening of free improvisation that gives sound to those who have no voice.
We are once again joined by visual artist and “Walter artist” Renée Pevernagie. Together with Renée, we will use paper, bamboo sticks and charcoal to respond to the music being played live on site. In this way, an artwork emerges that is just as spontaneous as the music itself. Everyone is welcome to take part — no prior experience is needed!
In Renée Pevernagie’s practice, drawings are built up layer by layer: pigment, pastel and charcoal are applied, fixed and scratched away. In the interplay of light and dark, plants appear as autonomous forms. Small studies grow into larger compositions with refined colour structures and a cinematic quality.
At 7:30 pm, Improv & Sketch begins under the guidance of Quentin. A Walter artist translates the idea of the open drawing table into the music room and invites everyone to explore the drawing materials.
At 8:30 pm, the second set begins, open to anyone who wishes to improvise.
Participating artists for this edition: John De Martino, Pierre Gerard, McCloud Zicmuse, Nicolas Van Belle, Audrey Lauro, Emmanuel Cremer, Clément Cerovecki, Patrick Clauwaert, Zéphyr Zijlstra, Yi Huijun, Katrishania Renata, Jordi Grognard, Viktor Perdieus, Roger Fähndrich, Peter Jacquemyn, Karel Colla, Bruno Grollet, Joachim Devillé, Joseph Nowell.
