Transfix, is an on-going, interactive, silent performance that transforms urban architecture into a poetic theatrical landscape. Performers break out of the traditional theatre arena into a public space where the audience becomes part of the performance, coming and going as they please. Wearing white, we open the dialogue of seeing color in a new way by merging the everyday with the theatrical, binding the permanence of urban architecture with the ephemerality of performance. Weaving in and around urban architectural spaces and spectators we transform the street into a stage, revealing the poetry and beauty of the mundane. Transfix is a collaborative, interactive urban intervention where the passerby, not expecting to see a performance stops in their tracks, transfixed.
