Circolando is developing poetics of the house: the childhood home, the ‘shell’ house, the imaginary house, the last dwelling place… In Mansarda, a theatre of shadows and light is shaped and influenced by both the performing and visual arts. Circolando develops an art of suggestion that excites the imagination and breeds emotion. These Portuguese
artists—who enjoy a growing reputation outside their country—have a liking for danced theatre inhabiting dream landscapes, and propose stories that do not claim to offer up one particular meaning, but want to awaken all our senses. Mansarda opens windows onto infinite subtlety.
