Braindrain

This audiovisual / theatrical performance is about the confrontation between an artist and different projections of himself on stage. The audience is given a glimpse into the restless mind of the artist. It’s an alienating combination of film, animation, performance and installation. Elements like poetry, spoken word, projections, singing and live acting mix up in an intriguing dreamy state where reality might shift. Can insomnia bombard the senses in such a way that it results in some kind of brain map? – All this results in a dynamic and psychedelic but also wonderful performance.
