Wounded objects
A playful exploration of the faulty, broken and less than perfect
Genre: Contemporary circus/Acrobatic research
Stage: Foyer
For 24 hours I will be under the rule of the crooked and bent, the wonky and deflated, the warped and twisted – examining the qualities of movement that wounded objects exhibit and provoke. A relationship between body and object reliant on balancing, fixing, adjusting and compensating. I’m interested in exploring the creativity and playful attitude that naturally arise when things don’t work quite as they should. Can it be a catalyst for creating new material?
