Performance live music meets live painting :: Musicians Ham and Yim + artist Jana Mordhorst

In this performance live music meets live painting! Ham and Yim perform on guitar and flute through improvisation, blending jazz, folk, classical, and ambient music, while Jana interacts with the music in real time—translating sound into line through live drawing. Together, they create an immersive experience where music and visual art unfold side by side.

Ham, an award-winning artist/guitarist recognized for his innovative sonic approach—recipient of GIMA’s Best Asian Creative Artist and selected for Ars Electronica Forum Wallis 2025—merges Thai cultural elements, field recordings, and contemporary sound design. His work explores sound, space, and memory, crafting experiences that connect listeners to both cultural heritage and the present moment.

Yim, one of Thailand’s pioneering historical flutists, is a classically and historically trained flutist from HKU Utrechts Conservatorium. A performer at the Utrecht Early Music Festival 2018, she bridges early music traditions with contemporary improvisation, bringing a refined yet adventurous voice to the duo’s sonic landscape.

Jana Mordhorst is an artist based in Amsterdam, known for her expressive One Line Drawings. With a background in design across Denmark, Germany, and Italy, she captures people and moments using a single, continuous line. Her work includes live event drawing, commissions, and creative workshops that encourage visual expression and connection.
