CIRCE: The Red Spiral
About: CIRCE: The Red Spiral is a multidisciplinary performance moving fluidly between improvisation and composition, open systems and structured frameworks. Through projected video, pre-recorded sound, and live percussion, the work explores repetition, attraction, confinement, and transformation. Drawing on Circe as a symbolic force rather than retelling the myth, the performance confronts the unstable relationship between the conditions that shape contemporary life and the ways we create, reinforce, and inhabit them.
