Shortened version of 'Ripple' due to injury of one of the performers with a solo of ‘Cyrrealism’
Cyrrealism
Life is not always what we want or imagine. However, what may seem unfortunate at first offers new and beautiful paths. Fenja Barteldres uses her Cyr wheel in an unknown way, thus, her apparatus becomes a different device: Sometimes strangely curved, sometimes agile like a snake, and sometimes disintegrated into its pieces.
A chance to see life’s imperfections, from a fresh angle.
In Cyrrealism, a whole world will grow out of a single, metal ring.Mesmerising, calm moments, satisfying rhythms in movement, beautiful stunning technique and a poetic relationship between the object(s) and the performer await you.
Ripple
The 'ripple effect' indicates the impact and consequences of the choices we make. Just as natural forces cause ripples in water, our choices cause ripples in our relationships, thoughts and experiences.
Using a giant spiral structure, three artists explore themes of balance, influence, power, flow and friction. The spiral allows them to push their boundaries and create their own world, where a leap in time can be suspended and a fall can seem endless.
