Description "Objects, sculptures and machines, through their visuality, are able to speak to us artistically and dramatically, often becoming one of the characters." Theatre designer and inventor, Joey Ruigrok (from Stalker, Urban Theatre Projects and Dog Troep, NL) worked with local designers, makers and artists over a period of 2 weeks to develop contraptions that perform feats of absurdity. Building the contraptions in the Honeysuckle workshops (process open to public on weekends), these makers then paraded their inventions out into town.
