KAYAN

Biography

Circus artist — balance, acrobatics, presence.

Kayan is a contemporary circus artist and musician. He trained at the Shems’y school in Morocco, then at the Centre national des arts du cirque in France.

His practice is centred on balance, hand-to-hand acrobatics and the presence of the body in action. It unfolds between personal creation, performing within companies and music, released under the name TheJMorose.

Artistic approach

Kayan's circus is written by the bodyengaged, precise, exposed to effort and to the fall. His research does not aim at prowess for its own sake, but at what the gesture makes visible. Balance becomes a fragile place, and the fall a way of opening another form of presence.
