Sjaan Flikweert

creates spoken-word, music, dance/performance art and film. Flikweert is an interdisciplinarian who creates emotional worlds in which the smallest details take on a leading role. Through personal stories, she allows contrasts to coexist effortlessly and palpably, confronting her audience with assumptions, judgments and expectations. She has been an active performing artist at home and abroad for over 12 years. Her work was featured in the Dutch-language spoken-word anthology Hard op (Aloud, 2019). She has published the audiovisual poetry collections ergens thuis en de ruimte ertussen (somewhere at home and the space in between) and De werkelijkheid heeft me niet nodig (Reality does not need me), which was selected for the 2021 Dutch Film Festival.
