Cellist Maya Friedman was artist in residence at Gaudeamus in 2018 and 2019. Back then, she already showed a great eagerness to explore her boundaries, and during the years following she has grown to become the versatile artist she is today. During the pandemic, she and BMX’er Sietse van Berkel made the extraordinary video ‘When two worlds collide’: a special encounter between a top athlete who elevates BMX’ing to art and an artist with unique physical strength. Now they meet again in front of a live audience on TivoliVredenburg’s KF Hein square.
