Brace For Impact
Knot on Hands
In Brace for Impact three acrobats search for the limits of balance.
In their quest for balance they find new ways of moving forward and travelling through space. On their journey they explore each other’s (im)possibilities and find out what it means to put all their weight in someone else’s hands.
Brace for Impact is a physical conversation between three people who keep on moving. Throughout the performance, the wordless conversation progresses, and slowly, a pathway is created across the stage. The balance between the three circus artists is constantly being challenged and restored, creating tension and constriction within their communication.
Knot on Hands is an acrobatic circus trio with performers from Belgium, Germany and Netherlands. Formed in 2017, they strive to take acrobatics into a new direction and create innovative pieces, where the main focus lies on the physicality between the three bodies. They have won several prizes at Young Stage International Circus Festival.
