Pieter Ampe & Jakob Ampe

(Bruxelles & Gent)

Jake & Pete's Big Reconciliation Attempt for the Disputes from the Past

Jakob and Pieter are brothers. They come from Belgium and they are both artists – one is a dancer and the other a musician. They also look pretty much alike. They recall their childhood, with its good and bad memories. They discuss things that unite and divide them in a study that involves extremes as well as subtleties. Their poetic performance plays with the expectations of the spectator, threatening to tip into catastrophe. But there is something innate that always unifies these brothers: their eccentric humour.
