Buoyancé – Tug(gle) presents itself as helium balloons connected to wheeled roboots on the ground, but represents the coexistence of numerous everyday dichotomies. As the audience is drawn towards the movement and reconfiguration of the balloons, their attention is gradually split between the gracefully gliding balloons and rolling robots, emphasizing the polarities of themes such as magic/machine, control/freedom, imploring a multi-layered perception of spatial cognition and physical sensations.
