UNUSUAL THEATRE
In recent years HipSick has grown from a small performance company mainly operating in the nightlife to a hybrid, interdisciplinary Rotterdam based collective with its own artistic signature.
The collective is characterized by extremely visual, brutal performances, artistic rawness and
confrontational, personal subjects that surprise and touch the audience. HipSick has a unique
movement idiom, in which the body and the groundbreaking physical endurance of
the performer is central. Because HipSick’s performances are based on the
intersection of performance and installation art, it is often described as “Live Art”.
HipSick starts from a fascination for Western visual culture, normativity, the night and
unusual locations. Current social topics are discussed from different perspectives, what
results in multiple productions around one theme. By placing current topics in
unusual, sometimes misplaced context, we create performances that play with the
perception of the viewer.
