Ropedancers

Ropedancers

Two figures, tied with a rope, move in a space defined by a few lines. Every new position of the characters changes both the perspective and the spatial perception. In this closed world we see the development in the relation between two persons. An older man is educating a younger one, and also dominating him. Later the older gets more and more dependent on the younger one, because he is becoming weaker.
