On 14 December, the Improvised Music and Dance Laboratory (IMDL) concludes its 2025 season with a union performance bringing together artists who participated from June to November. This special evening, shaped by improvisation and shifting ground, explores movement and sound through experimental forms.

Initiated by Collectief Imprography, the lab supports spontaneous creation by providing a space for artists to experiment closer to the unknown. This series was inspired by the Marsh Marigold, a plant blooming in unstable conditions, symbolizing boundary-living and growth within shifting ground.

The finale’s theme, Perennation, reflects IMDL’s goal to endure unfavourable conditions and sustain renewal. These social encounters and insights will seed IMDL’s upcoming 2026 season.

Lineup

Set I (17:00 – 18:00)

White Noise Strings & Miri Lee
Inspired by Robert Ryman’s subtle, minimalistic white-on-white paintings, the White Noise Strings treat silence as a canvas. The collective translates this into a silent universe where performers sparsely spread sounds in low dynamics, viewing silence as the ‘mother-composition’.

Performers: Miriam den Boer Salmon (violin), Mary Oliver (viola), Henk Zwerver (guitar), Lida Brouskari (piano, prepared piano), Wen Chin (cello), Raoul van der Weide (double bass), Miri Lee (dance).

Maria’s Quartet
Performers: Izabela Pacewicz & Maria Mavridou (dance), Miriam den Boer Salmon (violin), Camille Sa (flute).

(Intermission)

Set II (19:00 – 20:20)

In this set, 14 performers will be divided into two teams via an on-site draw. Each group will explore a 30-minute spontaneous composition of music and dance.

Participating Artists

Dance: Goda Žukauskaitė, Diederick van Rijsewijk, Maria Mavridou, Izabela Pacewicz, Miri Lee, Iris van Peppen.

Music: Ivo Bol (electronics), Hugo Ariens (prepared guitar), Annija Krivjonoka (voice), Mary Oliver (viola), Raoul van der Weide (double bass), Henk Zwerver (guitar), Lida Brouskari (piano, prepared piano), Wen Chin (cello).
