MULTIDISCIPLINARY ARTISTS
Dominic Kießling's life size installation integrates directly into the choreographic works, interacting with both the dancers and the architecture of the space. The changing forms of the installation mirror the dancers' movements, creating a dialogue between the physical and the ephemeral.
A special sound installation by d&b audiotechnik uses advanced spatial audio technology. By incorporating a three-dimensional soundscape specifically mapped to both the performers and installation, the spatial sound integration creates a truly immersive sensory experience.
THE PERFORMANCES
In Chasing Nothing, Shaked Heller and Ballet Sur_real will present two new choreographic creations.
Shaked Heller has danced with the Zurich Ballet, Stuttgart Ballet, and now Staatsballett Berlin, performing works by Willam Forsythe, Jiří Kylián, and Sharon Eyal amongst others.
