"A Study of Losses" is a magical, boundary-pushing contemporary circus journey inspired by Judith Schalansky’s novel and the atmospheric music of Beirut. Circus artists and forgotten everyday objects awaken in an evocative landscape where crumbling realities and decaying cultural artifacts intertwine with memories and phantom pains. Through magic and object manipulation, the performance seeks the allure of the lost, diving into a sea of oblivion to recover stories unrecorded by history. It is a visually striking and deeply emotive exploration of everything that remains unseen, yet continues to shape who we are.
