EchoCraft & SeraDream
I’ve been carving a modular backdrop that doubles as a set piece—a screen that can flip into a bench. It’s all about precision and a touch of drama, and I think it could be a neat way to blend stillness with movement. What do you think of a piece that shifts from silent to active?
It sounds like you’re turning quiet into an act, a silent frame that lifts into motion, which is exactly what theatre should feel like.
It’s all about the rhythm of the cut, the pause before the lift. The wood itself sings when it follows that rhythm, and the audience, I think, will feel the breath of the piece. Have you ever tried letting the sound of the knife guide the drama?
The knife’s rhythm is a breath you can feel, a quiet pulse that invites the audience to pause. I’ve let the sound guide my own small rituals, but only when the silence after it feels complete.
