Musical self-portrait from the pertinent question: 'Life? Or theater?

In "Figurine," soprano and theater maker Lieselot De Wilde juxtaposes the musical morality play "Ordo
Virtutum' by mystic Hildegard Von Bingen as a blueprint opposite her musical self-portrait. It forms the basis for a story about losing, searching and finding. Jewish-German painter Charlotte Salomon's question - 'Life? Or theater? - inspires a sketch in which you can simultaneously see the portrait of a woman, a self-portrait, a portrait of an artist and of a human being.

Lieselot De Wilde won the Flemish culture prize Ultima in both 2021 and 2022 in the 'Music' category.
