Traces
Pablo Panailillo · Nicolas Palma · Cristobal Espoz
THE PROJECT / How can humans and nature coexist? Traces depicts a shared ecosystem where the performer, space and matter influence each other. The artist uses clay and her body to create a landscape depicting conflict, destruction, and harmony. It’s a call for awareness of the human impact on the environment.
BIO / Hristina Ŝormaz started practicing circus and focusing on aerial rope while studying scenography in Serbia. She trained as an artist through non-formal education, artistic collaborations and masterclasses in circus and contemporary dance.
Discovering different physical practices became a way to question human relations with their environment and society, which led her to engage in a circus driven artistic, pedagogical, and social work. Since 2018, she is following doctoral studies in scenography, where she investigates the use of space and matter through a circus perspective.
