We zijn naar hier gekomen' is an audio tour consisting of archive material from DeSingel in Antwerp.

As part of the Momentum theatre festival, young makers were invited to think about (the function of) theatre today, and to imagine new forms of theatre.

In response, I went into the archives of DeSingel, an institution that houses music, theatre, dance and architecture. In their audio archive I started looking for voices from artists who make statements about theatre, and what theatre could be. Because these recordings cover a period of more than 20 years, this montage provides an insight into how ideas about theatre change over time.

Listening to these recordings whilst walking on the rooftop of DeSingel caused a sense of alienation which made the question "On which ground do we stand?" physically apparent.
