About

George Dhauw (b. 1994, Amsterdam) is an artist and composer based in Brussels.
After graduating from the Academy of Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam (2017), he worked as a composer and sound designer in international theatre contexts, collaborating with renowned directors and institutions such as Internationaal Theater Amsterdam, Théâtre de l’Odéon (Paris), the Deutsches Theater (Berlin) and the young vic (Londen).

In recent years, he has developed an autonomous, transdisciplinary practice at the intersection of textile, sound, and performance. His work explores themes of mental resilience, vulnerability, and silence, using slow, tactile processes as a form of reflection and resistance to acceleration.

His practice moves between the conceptual and the sensorial. Through sound installations, performances, and tactile environments, he creates spaces where textile, sound, and performance coexist. His ongoing series of wall-based textile works, Ten Silent Attempts (Octopus Gallery, Brussels, 2025; Galerie M, Berlin, 2025), investigates how fragile textile fragments can embody worlds of silence and endurance. The series emerged from his discovery that traditional craft techniques (such as knitting and lace-making) can serve as tools for artistic and reflection.
