Homeostasis

Homeostasis is an installation & performance piece that integrates the evocative visual design of Shibari with a contemporary approach to aerial arts. Lead artist Rain Anya and Collaborating Artist Kemo Burns (Shibari Artist) , have utilized Japanese rope tying techniques to create a large-scale visual interpretation of the human nervous system, constructed entirely with rope. This tree-like nervous system is an elaborate support structure for the aerial performers. In this way, the hybrid piece acts both as a stand-alone sculptural installation, and then becomes alive with movement as it morphs into the performance landscape.
