Three performers explore the discrete techniques of clairvoyance in their school of magic·k.
The school of magic·k starts from the postulate of the existence of clairvoyance as a latent and undisclosed shared force, using discreet techniques to convey the invisible and challenge accepted understandings of self, intention and encounter.
If clairvoyance is often attributed to the realm of extraordinary characters and gifted persons, the idea of a school, on the opposite, brings about the notion of transmission while focusing on learning rather than education. The school of magic·k is thought of as a local meeting point to gather and prepare tools in order to prefigure forms of living and loving that encourage worldly action.
