What is a drawing concert?
A drawing concert is a stage performance during which a drawer creates a live illustration or comic strip to the rhythm of a musical concert. It is a unique way to create bridges between these two arts, to make them dialogue and to attend an original and improvised live creation.
During this concert, Eliane Heijnen will read poems while following the rhythm of Sarah Ouakrat’s flute and Hanco Kolk’s pen.

She is also a member of the new "rebel" collective, "Pynarello", based in the Netherlands.
