PANTOMIME is a collaborative design effort tasked with revealing what is untold through fiber, sculpture, object, and movement. We define PANTOMIME as the art of conveying a story through gestures free of speech. This performance centered show seeks to present an alternative to our dystopian moment through the activation of function. Injecting imagination into the relationship between objects and the body allows the reality of survival to be surpassed.
PANTOMIME pulls on elements from the real world to manufacture something worth building toward. We craft narratives that mirror our reality and idealistic aspirations. With an open acceptance of changing technologies, a commitment to craft, and a willingness to collaborate, PANTOMIME builds a world ready for tomorrow. Together, we see our current moment and step toward something better.
