Axial Figures is an upcoming stage work created in collaboration between Danish choreographer Simone Wierød, the architecture company Standard Practice and five contemporary circus artists.
With a precise and minimalistic aesthetic Axial Figures explores the construction and deconstruction of systems – linear, as well as choreographic, geometric, and social. The full volume of the stage is activated through a motorized scenography of aerial ropes allowing movements on the vertical plane as well as the horizontal.
Five performers create an ever-evolving 3D image of lines and geometric patterns by manipulating a scenography of aerial ropes from the ground and from the air, continuously challenging themselves, each other, and the outside eye on what is physically possible. What happens when we build something together? And what happens when someone suddenly lets go?
Axial Figures is a highly visual work, with graphic precision and a dynamic and impressive movement vocabulary.
