How do I bring about the unique/original through appropriation/remix in my art practice?
When I try to create original work, I first begin with creating original tricks and routines. The best way is to start with the basics. I don't try and come up with something completely new. I usually try and work with what I already have. Combing certain tricks that are very different is a technique I like to use. Often the outcome doesn’t work or is less than impressive, but when it does I’m beyond happy. As a result of experimenting with interesting and original routines and tricks I feel the task of coming up with original show ideas is far less stressful and problematic.
Within circus, original ideas are important, so to me it’s crucial I’m seen as an artist who is innovative and original.
