Bibnoiz is looking for an interactive artwork (Jazz & Spoken Word)
What are we looking for?
We are looking for a visual artist, illustrator or installation artist who would like to design an interactive/participatory artwork and oversee it throughout the evening. We want Bibnoiz visitors to be more than just spectators; we want them to work with you to create an artwork that evolves over the course of the evening.
Link with the theme
The artwork may respond to the atmosphere of the evening: the improvisation of jazz, the power of spoken word, or the library’s setting (language, stories, paper, text). The specific format is open: from live illustration or a mural in which the audience participates, to a three-dimensional collage or an installation combining language and images.
What do we offer
- A unique, atmospheric venue at the Ypres Library with an enthusiastic audience.
- Financial compensation for materials and artistic performance (to be agreed).
- Promotion via the channels of Hypnoiz, A New Breeze, Ypres Library and the City of Ypres.
Who are we looking for?
Artists (from emerging talent to experienced creators) who relate to live dynamics, participation and the fusion of visual art with the atmosphere of music and spoken word. We are particularly keen to support emerging, young artistic talent and are keen to give them a platform, but this call is open to creators of all ages and backgrounds who feel inspired by this concept!
Participate
To take part in this open call, you must have an artist profile on Kunstwerkt.
Create your account, add your first artwork to your artist profile straight away, and take up the challenge!
You must submit between two and six artworks from your profile. This will allow the jury to make their selection based on a small portfolio.

A New Breeze is the artistic project run by Jeugdhuis JOC Ieper vzw. With support from the Flemish Government, we are developing an accessible creative programme for young people (aged 15–30) in the Westhoek region: ranging from short workshops and open sessions to in-depth courses, for anyone who fancies creating, discovering and experimenting. Ideally, these are led by young artists from Ypres with professional experience.
About Bibnoiz
Bibnoiz is a collaboration between the young people of Hypnoiz, the concert programme of Jeugdhuis JOC Ieper and Ypres Library. Following a successful first edition, this year we are moving on to a dynamic evening centred on jazz music and spoken word, where music and words flow into one another.
