Jana Zitzmanns THAUMATROPE
Created 2009-06-27 by Anna Rosenfelder
Location: Rural - Co. Wicklow
Duration: 2009-06-27 to 2009-06-28
Project Outline
THAUMATROPE is a combined theatrical performance/ sculptural installation- event which visual artist Jana Zitzmann devised for Killruddery Arts ENCHANTED GARDEN, a multidisciplinary Arts event for children.
Jana created a 12 foot high two dimensional sculptural image of a three dimensional birdcage, painted in fluorescent orange. This was installed in Killruddery Gardens and was focus and reference point for a series of theatrical performances which took place over the duration of the ENCHANTED GARDEN weekend: Two performers with bird masks and winged costumes and a musician (Bass-clarinet) engaged the audience in a surreal and magical exploration of the sculpture and gardens.
Performance: Jana Zitzmann, Anna Rosenfelder Music: Frantisek Sic
