@CPR | Kyle Carr Scheurich: true ribs, rawhide

true ribs, rawhide is a solo dance/theatre show both created by and performed by artist Kyle Carr Scheurich. Stripping his image of his own features, the artist creates an abstract figure that becomes a vehicle for physical language, giving the audience the opportunity to project onto said figure. We are invited to follow this figure during an excerpt of a much longer journey. It becomes about the being in between. Between violence and tenderness, between exposing and hiding, between tension and letting go, between transit and stasis, between a memory and the present.
