Sammy Van den Heuvel — scenography

Each space grows within a specific frame that is formed through conversations; with the director, with the choreographer, with the text, the music, the material, 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 conversation with the performers, and, through them, in a conversation with the audience.

The man who fell from the sky

Panama Pictures intertwines dance, aerial and floor acrobatics, and live music to capture the collective sense of directionlessness and dislocation that marks our times. 

A series of poetic images, in which the strength and vulnerability of the human body are paramount, show the human being who, without a foothold or compass, must relate to an environment that is subject to change.
