February 2024 — August 2024: Creation

In this street performance, Jakobe Geens and Josse de Broeck engage with the ideas of freedom, balance, and the bicycle. They were inspired by the work of Panamarenko, with whom they share an interest in flight, energy, and connection. The colourful fragility of Alexander Calder's mobiles also served as inspiration.

The core team consists of Jakobe Geens and Josse de Broeck. Both are trained as partner acrobats and for this project, they will take on the challenge together for the first time. The development of objects and set is supported by costume designer Christine Snik, who also collaborated on BareBody. The technical and constructional level is supervised by Joris Jansens and Emma Ribbens.
