You may know Christian Bakalov as a performer in the works of Ivo Dimchev, Jan Fabre, Miet Warlop or Vincent Riebeek & Florentina Holzinger. With Bright he is currently developing a parcours in which you play the leading role. Immersed into a vast dark space full of phosphorescent signs, the most banal and daily objects become enchanted and estranged. Blurring the boundaries between performative action and installation, Bright aims to stimulate all of our senses, evoking a direct experience of a multiple space, where every sign also signifies something else. During Working Title Situation #03, Christian Bakalov will develop a gallery version of Bright, in which the audience will be immersed one by one.
