Camiel tries to recreate the painting of his great example Jackson Pollock. But how does he get the right spot in the right place? Should he let the paint drip, pour, splash, throw? Work with brushes or sticks or entire pots? He throws his whole body into the battle. But no matter how he turns, jumps, rolls, or floats, his painting does not look like the original.
Plock! is visual circus-sound theater that stimulates all the senses. With humming paint pots, colored sounds, dancing paint, and an acrobatic painter.
A performance for everyone who sometimes wants to color outside the lines.
