Blind Date

Solo Performance

A relationship mirror without realationship

 

An emotional game, a projection of hopes, desires, and dreams onto a balloon.

 

Can an imaginary relationship be brought into motion?

Does contact with the object change the gliding movements on the frozen medium, ice? How does the gliding motion change the relationship to the object?

Curiosity, play instinct and projection of desire develop a momentum of fluid static gliding and steady acceleration.

 

Blind Date premiered at the international festival for contemporary ice skating -5° Sur Scène in Monéteau, France in 2015 and was awarded with the festival’s Prix de l'Originalité.
