Volonté - interdisciplinary collage


Volonté is a multidisciplinary portrayal of a will and urge. It's alike surrealistic still life, with physical flesh, past and present.

Volonté presents a collage for the audience to sink in. The rambling world can be wondered, questioned, hated and loved. Volonté is an absurd painting.

Volonté attaches together physical theatre, dance as well as visual, sound, light and media art.
