Contemplations
Site-specific wire performances
The tightrope walkers of Contemplations, like the Fates, are spinners.
They intertwine hours and seconds.
They weave, not a work, but the web of life.
A subtle weave in which, without our knowledge, is embroidered what we hide and what reveals us.

With Contemplations, the Cie des Chaussons Rouges offers tightrope walking performances in unusual places such as wilderness corners, museums, urban spaces and historic parks.
The performances fit organically into the landscape to amplify its magic.
Tightrope walkers Audrey Bossuyt and Marta Lodoli make their project part of the environmental art approach.
They interact by installing a tightrope wire in the landscape, an act both minimalist and powerful, carrying multiple symbolic meanings.
A steel wire unites, divides, and reorganizes space and time.
