Venue details:
Riga Circus arena, Merkela street 4, RigaAn empty black circle. A pendulum draws a fragile spiral of white sand. Movement creates patterns, patterns become images, images intertwine, layer beyond layer, regenerating through cycles of destruction and renewed motion. Echoes of the Circus ring where danger and vulnerability are real. Nowhere to hide. Nothing lacking.
