ArtBase Terneuzen and the Zeeland Jazz Festival present Transitivity: a new live performance and installation by visual artist Koen Delaere and drummer/composer Sun-Mi Hong, in which painting and jazz meet in improvisation, rhythm and mutual response.

PROGRAM | Saturday, June 13, 2026, 3:30 PM | Artist Talk | Terneuzen City Hall

Curator Eva Langerak will be in conversation with visual artist Koen Delaere about his working methods, improvisation, and the importance of creative freedom.
