Open call for performers for the new film by Karel Tuytschaever
For his new fiction film, Karel Tuytschaever is looking for performers (actors, dancers, and other
performing artists) attracted to a body-oriented work process in which sincere physicality is central.
After his film EASY TIGER, in which hearing and other hearing people worked together to create a unique visual language, this film is the final part of his long-term research project, When the artist swallows his image. This project explores the relationship between his own presence and that of other performers, intending to create an honest and vulnerable image.
Do you feel drawn to this approach? Send us a video in which you introduce yourself by sharing three physical features that make you unique. If you like, you can also tell us briefly about your motivation and background.
