Sungsoo Ahn Pick-up Group & WHS: Double Exposure

Plastic surgery on stage. The performance moves between dance and object manipulation and reveals the tension between unrealistic ideals and real human individuals. The Korean dance artists and the Finnish circus artist, Ville Walo, expose themselves to an unusual cross-art encounter. The dancers move towards object choreographies; the circus artist approaches from the opposite direction and manipulates human bodies. This joint work will receive its world premiere in the Helsinki Festival after which it will be performed in Seoul.
