Step into a world where movement and technology collide in INmotion//STOPmotion, an hour-long improvisational installation performance created by Evan Zukin and Andi Bartlein.
Through live movement, projections, and interactive technology, the work explores the ways our actions shape and manipulate the world around us. As the performance unfolds in real time, performers and audience alike are invited to question cause and effect, presence and absence, motion and stillness.
INmotion//STOPmotion asks us to dig deeper into how even the smallest actions leave lasting traces on the spaces and systems surrounding us.
