Abstract

In 2017, I participated in a performance, titled “Üvegbúrák” / “Bell Jars” / “Die Glasglocke”, as a costume, puppet, and set designer. The performance had two very different venues, and due to these two venues, the change of location had brought up problems to be solved and it thus went along with creative compromises. The encounter and merging of the artistic concept and practical feasibility were unavoidable at this point, but one can inspire the other, and a space structure could be found, which met both standards - the dramatic and practical function.

My aim in this paper, based on my own experiences, is to examine and analyze the visual aspects of the performance as a series of creative and cooperative actions, and the artistic and practical issues which were raised in the creation progress.
