Walking Bread live performance is an immersive event that fuses #performanceart, #animation, and #installation into a single hybrid spectacle. Presented as a cross between avant-garde theatre and experimental cinema, it transforms the stage into a living laboratory of art, sound, and moving images. The performance includes surreal bread creatures, uncanny body-extensions, puppetry forms, and animated projections that shift between theatre, sculpture, and visual storytelling.
This show explores the lineage of performance art from Allan Kaprow’s happenings to Marina Abramović’s endurance works, merging it with multimedia traditions from Nam June Paik’s video art to Laurie Anderson’s performance-concerts. Bread becomes a living metaphor, manipulated through #dance, #soundart, #choreography, and expanded cinema techniques, creating an environment where sculpture, theatre, and film intersect. Audiences witness a collision of #contemporaryart, live animation, shadow theatre, ritual staging, and art installation, resulting in an interdisciplinary experience that belongs equally to the black box of experimental theatre and the white cube of the museum.
Walking Bread live events have been presented in connection with film festivals, animation showcases, art biennales, and cultural institutions dedicated to cross-disciplinary practice. The work speaks to the history of absurdist theatre, from Antonin Artaud’s Theatre of Cruelty to the Dada cabaret and Surrealist performances of the early 20th century. At the same time, it resonates with contemporary live-art festivals that feature experimental music, media art, and interactive performance.
The performance incorporates elements of choreography, scenography, experimental film, puppetry, live cinema, and multimedia installation. It expands the boundaries of storytelling through soundscapes, movement, and projection mapping, while building a dialogue with traditions of immersive art and experimental performance. Audiences encounter a playful yet unsettling encounter with dystopian imagination, situated at the crossroads of #avantgarde theatre, #immersive installation, and live #animation.
Walking Bread functions as an interdisciplinary artwork that embraces multimedia performance, expanded cinema, hybrid art practices, and collective experience. It appeals to viewers interested in contemporary performance studies, artistic research, and experimental theatre traditions, as well as to those seeking new forms of animation and live image-making. This one-of-a-kind event continues the global conversation around transmedia storytelling, experimental performance, and art beyond borders.
