Thomas Dudkiewicz
Thomas Dudkiewicz (Emmen, 1989) is a performer, writer and storyteller, and part of performance collective URLAND. Trained at the Theatre Academy of Maastricht, he has spent fifteen years developing a body of work in which fiction, myth and the imagination are pushed to their absolute limits. His work explores consciousness, storytelling and the power of fiction as a way of understanding the world.
Thomas Dudkiewicz (Emmen, 1989) studeerde in 2011 af aan de Theateracademie van Maastricht. Sindsdien werkt hij als acteur, schrijver en theatermaker bij instellingen in Nederland en België. Hij maakt deel uit van het Performance Collective Urland.
URLAND works collectively. URLAND is autonomous. URLAND wants Gesamtkunst. URLAND has no method. URLAND experiments. URLAND is paradoxical. URLAND resides somewhere between artificial and real. URLAND appropriates, quotes and samples. URLAND clashes. URLAND believes in live art in digital times.
URLAND, an innovative performance collective from Rotterdam, consists of Geräuschmacher Jimi Zoet, Bildermacher Marijn Alexander de Jong, Geschichtenmacher Thomas Dudkiewicz and a solid group of fellow combatants. URLAND makes eclectic, interdisciplinary performances that clash between different styles, forms and themes, between visual culture and world literature, data and dada, digital oracles and philosophy. URLAND focuses on the fundamental, on telling and theatricalising existential stories that make the elusiveness of the contemporary palpable.
