When and Where
November 15th, from 5 p.m., Prague, as part of Circus nights in CIRQUEON.
About the Program
The premiere and culmination of a five-day masterclass with Eliška Brtnická.
All Shapes is a long-term performance positioned between movement installation and contemporary circus, combining dance, object manipulation, and physical performance. It is not a demonstration of skills, but rather an exploration of a new artistic language and form of expression. The piece builds on the performance Thin Skin and works with shaped metal rods, a material originally intended for single use. This creates a landscape into which the human body organically immerses itself, becoming part of it. Each object has a different form; no two are the same, just as no two bodies are identical. The originality of the shapes reflects the uniqueness of every human being. The body manipulates the object, and the object manipulates the body, until the boundaries between the two disappear. The world becomes one, constantly influencing and being influenced in return.
