FREE ADMISSION


Ana Jordão is a Portuguese contemporary circus artist based in Berlin whose work investigates hybrid forms between circus and dance. Her artistic practice focuses on illusion, perception, suspension, and the emotional potential of physical risk.

Vincent Kollar is a circus artist and certified rigger recognized for his innovative work in meteor manipulation and contemporary circus rigging. Together, Ana and Vincent develop performances that merge technical precision with emotional depth, creating highly visual and physically intricate stage experiences.

Their collaborations have been presented internationally in festivals and venues dedicated to contemporary circus and interdisciplinary performance.


A body and other objects


A body and other objects (short version) is a condensed and immersive exploration of gravity, suspension, illusion, and interconnectedness. Through a choreographic language that merges hair-hanging, partnering, object manipulation, and contemporary circus practices, the piece invites audiences into a world where physical laws appear to shift and dissolve.

Bodies float, lean, suspend, and intertwine with ropes, objects, and invisible tensions, generating images that oscillate between vulnerability and strength, fragility and control. The performers construct a constantly evolving landscape where movement becomes both mechanical and poetic.

The work explores the invisible systems that connect bodies and objects, exposing the delicate balance between dependence and autonomy, trust and risk. Rather than concealing the mechanics behind the illusion, the piece reveals them, transforming rigging and technical apparatuses into part of the choreographic language itself.

Accompanied by Fabian Laute’s atmospheric sound composition, the performance creates a sensory experience that blurs distinctions between circus, dance, installation, and visual poetry.
