Perilipsi

Discover a world where still images transform into motion. This surreal dance-theatre piece brings gallery images to life with curiosity, playfulness, and a bold reimagining of the unexpected.

Predominantly tasked, scored and improvised, Perilipsi is an energetic and unpredictable, collaboative contemporary dance-theatre work - directed by Stiliana Alfred - that dissolves boundaries between canvas and choreography. It celebrates play, perception, and the imagination, while interpreting and reframing visual art, throwing it into motion with a surreal edge and a touch of theatrical mischeif.
