Hristina Ŝormaz (Serbia) – Traces – Rope
How can humans and nature coexist? Traces depicts a shared ecosystem where the performer, space and matter influence each other. The artist uses clay and her body to create a landscape depicting conflict, destruction, and harmony. It’s a call for awareness of the human impact on the environment.
Hristina Ŝormaz started practicing circus and focusing on aerial rope while studying scenography in Serbia. She trained as an artist through non-formal education, artistic collaborations and masterclasses in circus and contemporary dance.
Discovering different physical practices became a way to question human relations with their environment and society, which led her to engage in a circus driven artistic, pedagogical, and social work. Since 2018, she is following doctoral studies in scenography, where she investigates the use of space and matter through a circus perspective.
