Sammy Van den Heuvel — scenography

Each space grows within a specific frame that is shaped through dialogue; with the director, with the choreographer, with the text, the music, the materials, with the dramaturg, with the production team, with the artists and builders in the workshops, with the stage technicians. Ultimately, the built space engages in a dialogue with the performers, and, through them, in a conversation with the audience.

In a surreal, poetic universe, the performers balance on crumbling objects high up in the air — fragments of a by-gone era. They defy gravity. So great is the desire to create cohesion in a fragmented world, to hold onto the past, to get a grip on the future and be immersed into the moment.
