Regional training cycle with Cata Aguayo
Coordinated by the contemporary circus collective ROOM 100, the Croatian national circus platform is partnering with aerial circus artist Cata Aguayo to organize a series of aerial research laboratories.
This project brings together ten artists from Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia with a shared interest in exploring creativity, breaking free from imposed forms, and finding authenticity. It’s a one-year program made up of three workshops, and each module will include both group work and individual projects.
This collaboration aims to promote collaboration and knowledge sharing among members of the Croatian national circus platform to address challenges the contemporary circus sector faces.
