Bunked off games yesterday and went to CiRCa where the Company Corps Sage were in residence, preparing their next spectacle « Mur / Mur ».
The current ‘trend’ in contemporary circus seems to be dark clothes, black backgrounds and virtually no lighting. Add to this periods of rapid movement – wonderful conditions for a photographer…
Luckily I have a bit of experience (and cameras that have super-sensitive sensors!) with these conditions, so I was able to justify my time with them – can’t for the life understand the ‘theme’ (if there ever was one) and reading the press documents just makes it worse…nice people though.
