Bustle is a performative installation that invites you to visit an unusual garden, where you can discover and experience various forms of vibration, fluidity, and balance together with the three authors. You can help them care for this remarkable garden or just stop by for a moment and enjoy its fruits. Whether you are a child or an adult, accept the artists' invitation to play together. And at the same time, look around carefully whenever you walk through the city. You may encounter one of the artists walking a strange creature.
Don't worry, none of these pets pose any danger to you. But if you want to pet one, it's best to ask its human companion first.
The authors have created an autonomous world of kinetic objects that poetically and literally explore properties such as vibration, instability, fluidity, equilibrium, and the resulting balancing, shaking, and swarming. They reflect observations of purely natural phenomena, processes, and transformations (such as the seeding of plants, the fluttering of leaves, the waving of grass, the swaying of grain stalks) and human work in the landscape, in the garden and in the field, and its care (such as settling in, farming, cultivating, weeding, building bird scarers in the garden, scarecrows in the field, cleaning ponds, grafting trees, raking leaves). Individual objects react to their surroundings and change or move under the influence of the elements.
The production is part of the South Specific festival program.
