The photographer Tani Simberg has documented Baltic Circle’s performances, audiences and parties every year since the festival began. Simberg has an ability to capture energies and tones with unique sensitivity; in her hands, the documents become timeless artworks.
Over two decades, Simberg has followed the expansion of Baltic Circle from a Nordic-Baltic theatre community into an internationally renowned theatre festival that has its finger on the pulse of society and the phenomena of the present moment in time.
For the festival’s jubilee edition, Simberg will compile a collection of her archived images from attics, photo albums, negatives and hard drives. The exhibition takes the viewer on a voyage through motifs, times and tensions. It shows developments in both the festival and the world of theatre and performance at large.
