Engaging in improvisation, the artist will use the surroundings and found objects to make the work. Risk, the diversity of expression, site-specificity and direct contact between the artist and the audience are principles which will guide the work.
“My performances are a forum, a space in time for interaction with the audience. I hope that in my desperate gestures viewers will find for themselves something meaningful, even transcendent. I still naively believe, that anyone can create a phenomenon on a cosmic scale and I feel it will be a meaningless sacrifice of an insignificant man.” – Tomasz Szrama
Pawa runs on the contributions of our event goers and public funding.
We believe performance art should be assible to everyone, thats why majority of our shows are open to the public, however if you have funds to spare please consider contributing.
