Year 2021

In this project, I aimed to apply the space-costume research in a defined internal space. Combining the concept of shadows as a metaphor with the spatiality of the costumes, I worked with the challenge of expanding the boundaries of the stage in order to create an interactive and multisensory experience.

The main idea of Displaced Shadows was to create forms where the human body is camouflaged or re-established. Every dancer is becoming a shadow of themselves, a shadow of someone else, or the shadow of the scenography. Each of the shadow-costumes studies a different type of space and movement, while following a common approach aesthetically.
