Ceramic Circus

Circassian acrobat Julian Vogel twists plates or challenges a disjointed bicycle - there's breakage, but the most fragile resists. The drum roll vibrates, a ceramic ball twirls, the acrobat glides on his rollerblades in a kind of frantic race against time, the ceramic breaks and shatters... A taste for risk and joyful stress: Ceramic Circus stages the contrasts and fragile balances that stir life. (©Jona Harnish)
