clapclaplab is a transient and nomadic non-profit organisation in Brussels and Hong Kong initiating, supporting and promoting projects and artists that are re-searching and reshaping the idea of performance and how through performance they can create a constant dialogue with our changing society and culture at large.
The artists we work with come from diverse backgrounds both geographically and artistically but share a non-conformist, non-compromising and no-nonsense approach to making contemporary performing arts. Yet, more often than not, their work also breaks out of the box of what we call performance, with links to both other art forms and various paradigms in society.
As producers we like to work with both emerging and more established artists. Every collaboration with an artist is different and tailor made to his/her needs and wishes at this time in their career.
Aside from artists support we also initiate our own projects (usually involving the artists we work with and in partnership with various peer organisations), ranging from residency projects, artist exchanges, curated events, talks,…
We work with a flexible team of freelance producers in Europe, Asia and the US, all with extensive knowledge and experience in the contemporary arts field. We currently have two ‘home bases’, one in Brussels, Belgium and one in Hong Kong.
