A spectacular, gravity-defying aerial dance.
CirkVOST was created in 2007 by five artists who were committed to communal living, cultural itinerancy and inspired by the challenge of creating new high flying artistic adventures.
Epicycle featured swinging trapeze, standing and swinging catchers playing on and around an astounding circular, metal structure, and draws inspiration from the world of the comic book. Each character, or cyclonaut, occupies a different part of the circle, their movement, interaction, rhythm and performance creating a spectacular, gravity-defying aerial dance.
Epicycle was one of the performances which appeared, unannounced in the centre of London on 2nd September 2012 as part of Piccadilly Circus Circus, a one-day event that saw more than two hundred circus artists perform among the pendant flags and grand stone buildings of London’s Piccadilly.
