What would happen to our perception of harsh experiences such as domestic violence or isolation if they could become symbolized by a friendly, non-threatening, childhood object? In Choice of Metaphor, the performers give concrete definition to the abstract word “trauma” by turning it into a physical everyday object, a balloon.
Choice of Metaphor is a collaboration of live performance and video projection. It is an organic, living story that began with a loose script of movements, ideas and scenes and took shape through guided improvisational exercises.
