Dance solos from visitors of Villa Voortman

Portretten is a choreographic performance consisting of a dozen dance solos. Visitors of Villa Voortman work one-on-one with a choreographer and a musician to create an individual movement moment. The different solos are ultimately woven together to form a beautiful whole. Portretten will premiere on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at HA Concerts Gent. In anticipation of this premiere, during the openbare werken festival, the audience will have the opportunity to experience a number of solos in progress.
