BLACK MAGIC
Magic - short performance
In Black Magic two magicians collaborate closely together, despite being physically distant. Exploring techniques of black theatre and double exposure – reminiscent of 19th-century trick photography- they perform magic tricks through video cameras aimed at their tables. The merging of traditional methods and modern technology seamlessly allows for the execution of illusions in real time, blurring the boundaries between ‘virtual’ and ‘real’.
Black Magic is a derivative of the performance ‘Perto’ (2021), which experiments with the potentials of real time video imagery on scenic spaces.
