“The Circle of Everything”
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.
Simultaneously, the work reveals the duality at play; higher and lower, light and shadow, our sense of connection to oneself, others, and the world, as well as our sense of separation.
Integrated into the performance is live Japanese Enso painting, a circle painted 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.
In the final scene, vibrant colours were poured from above, using the momentum of a spinning aerial hoop to create a unique blend of deliberate action and chance.

“Aerial Enso - The Dance of Colour and Chance”
A new collection of abstract performative paintings, created as part of The Circle of Everything performance.
Each piece is brought to life through circular aerial movement, with colours applied from above during the live performance.
Inspired by themes of duality, energy, and synchronicity, these works capture the balance between deliberate action and chance.
