Pacemaker
The piece sends megahertz straight to the centre of your guts and gives you goose bumps. Marcelo Nunes explores the limits of his body through powerful and spectacular body control. He steps onto a carpet of broken glass and rubs, scratches and dances across the shards.
In a moving combination of installation, fakir art, dance and bouffon, the darker cousin of the clown, Brazilian artist Marcelo Nunes seeks to challenge the boundaries of what we are able to see and feel.
Pacemaker is a both raw and poetic performance about confronting fears and breaking free from the restrictive chains of normality.
A performance that stabs into the body like a splinter.
A bouffon is a subversive and grotesque form of clown that mocks societal norms and injustices by pushing the audience out of their comfort zones.
