Blind Date

Solo performance, running time of approximately 7.30 min

A relationship mirror without relationship

 

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?

 

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