Garment Gatherings: High (on) Fashion questions the problematics of the textile industry and our views on clothes, waste and fashion.
With a captivating combination of floor acrobatics, physical theater and her signature Chinese pole dance style, Clara Köpf invites the audience to reflect on the impact of overconsumption and the madness of fast fashion. Are we wearing clothes or clothes are wearing us? How many clothes are a lot and how many are too much?
A performance filled with unexpected, magical moments, leaving the audience in awe!
After the performance there is an opportunity to swap clothes.
Collect your hidden gems from the bottom of your walk-in closet and allow them a new life in Garment Gatherings: High (on) Fashion!
Clara Köpf graduated from Codarts Circus Arts in 2024 and immediately created her own performance; Garment Gatherings: High (on) Fashion. This new creation is inspired by the ecological and social problems caused by the fast fashion industry and its textile waste.
