Be Flat vzw was founded in 2017 by Thomas Decaesstecker and Ward Mortier. Be Flat stands for equality. We want to play for everyone. Our goal is to bring together people from different backgrounds. To connect and inspire by sharing our creativity, through movement and sound. To establish a human connection between performer and spectator, while allowing all spectators their own freedom of interpretation, their own personal experience of the performance. Recurring themes in the work of Be Flat are territoriality, mobility and the strength of the group. Ward (Ghent 1993) and Thomas (Tervuren 1989) first met in 2008 at a parkour gathering in Ghent. Years of shared passion for movement and music naturally led to their first creation Follow Me (2018). An acrobatic in-situ performance that combines freerunning with circus and street theater. Ward has studied Chinese pole and acro-dance at ESAC (Ecole Supérieure des Arts du Cirque, Brussels). Thomas has been trained as an acrobat/ handbalancer at Escuela De Artes Circenses Del Circo Del Mundo (Santiago, Chili).
