In a practically empty world, there are two men standing with a couple of things that are not much more than what they are: a bucket, flour, a branch, a chair and a garden hose.
Apocalyptic, futuristic, ritualistic, comic, cosmic and prehistoric tableaus are created.
Two men who attempt to make something from nothing.
DEEG reveals the human, who finds his salvation in creativity in order to survive in the emptiness.
About the creators
DEEG* is, after Kadrage**, a new visual creation from Peter Vandemeulebroecke and Jef Van gestel at the interface of visual art, performance and physical theatre. The performance is not dependent on one particular interpretation and challenges the audience. It is a kaleidoscopic machine producing images of how humanity is continually trying to shape its world.
Van gestel and Vandemeulebroecke are also working closely with the theatre maker Harm van Geel again, who directed the production.
*The flour used in the performance is a by-product and is not intended for human consumption.
Warning: This performance uses a strobe light
**Kadrage was nominated for the VSCD mime/performance prize 2022.
