An interdisciplinary solo performance featuring live painting, aerial dance and moving images.
Using the shape of the circle, the work celebrates the life force that holds us up and gives us momentum to move, think, live and create. Invisible, infinite energy. Transpiring through the cyclical nature of existence; from sunrise to sunset, birth & death, conscious and subconscious, throughout time and space. The continuous flow of movement on the ground and in the air.
Integrated into the performance is live Japanese Enso painting, a spiritual practice where the artist paints the work in one masterstroke, one breath and no corrections afterwards. The practice gives form to the flow of the energy in the moment, making invisible synchronicities visible. Symbolically, the iconic Zen symbol represents the circle of life and the connectedness of existence.The painting will be produced on a large scale to correspond to the human body and the aerial hoop.
The art work will remain on stage afterwards as an art installation for the audience to see it up close.
Simultaneously, the work reveals the duality at play; higher and lower, light and shadow, micro cosmos and macro cosmos, our sense of connection to oneself, others, and the world, as well as our sense of separation.
