Overexposed, was a realisation of a scenographic experiment I began developing as part of my MFA studies. The choreography and character development within the piece were derived from the post-digital aesthetic of the design and by research that inspired it.
I was not only the designer of this piece, but the visionary and director. The design and the performers bodies have a symbiotic relationship. The performers create the architecture and the design shapes the characters.
