Boegbeeld

​

Boegbeeld is an organization producing the work of the two circus artists Camille Paycha and Ruben Mardulier. Camille and Ruben make different kind of work and both have their own specific signature. Nevertheless, they gather around the same mindset of challenging the norms, sometimes through humor with the right amount of naivety, other times through poetry or radicality but always with care at the core of their practice and a concern for accessibility. The organization Boegbeeld reaches through the variety of works, specific audiences both local and international, in different contexts such as festivals, theaters, museums, the streets or the internet.
