Studio Drift creates dramatic shifting Ego sculpture for Dutch opera L'Orfeo
Studio Drift has created Ego, a kinetic sculpture made of 10 miles of ultra-fine nylon, for the Dutch National Touring Opera's production of L'Orfeo.
The installation hangs above the heads of performers and changes shape to represent the inner world of the characters on stage.
Sometimes it appears solid, and at other times as fluid as water ? a result of its hair-thin nylon threads being pulled from eight corners.
Wagemakers worked closely with choreographer Nanine Linning and Studio Drift's Lonneke Gordijn on the concept, which they said required that they rethink their usual way of creation.
"In this process we enhanced each other, puzzling together to sculpt an experience where dance, music, voice, sculpture and technology become one voice," said Gordijn.
