Performance

As well as creating installations that blur the boundaries of art and theatre, Sofie creates outdoor site-specific and site-sensitive theatre.

Working as a designer and maker, Sofie devises projects with teams of people, to create monumental sculptural puppets, giant silk flowers or little people puppets that appear from cooking pots within the mesmerising environments that she conjures up, exploring scale and its relationship to illusion.

At the core of Sofie’s work is the individual performer transformed by costume, masks and puppets.

She regularly collaborates with theatre artist Mark Storor, creates work for Greenwich and Docklands International Festival and designs for Graeae Theatre. She has worked with LIFT, Kinetika and many extraordinary artists.
