Artist Wes Peden is joining this DYNAMO residency to work on the performance Astromorph, with premiere in February 2027. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using his inventive and maximalist juggling style, Wes Peden<\/strong> dives into a world of kites, spinning flowers, helicopters, and giant hands. Astromorph<\/em><\/strong> is pure juggling, where shapes, colors, and gravity are used to fill the sky with joyful and bombastic eye candy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Inspired by the extravagance of Mexican wrestling and the collage work of Henri Matisse, Astromorph<\/em><\/strong> is a show of playful elegance where high-speed hands are used to capture the calm of a ball freezing at its apex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wes Peden<\/strong> is one of the most influential and innovative jugglers of his generation. Known for his explosive technique, playful aesthetic, and genre-defying creativity, Wes<\/strong> constantly finds new ways to bring joy and surprise to the stage through juggling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A graduate of DOCH (Stockholm University of Dance and Circus), Wes<\/strong> has performed his work in over 30 countries across five continents, both as a solo artist and as part of major international companies. His juggling videos have garnered millions of views and a devoted global following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wes<\/strong> combines complex technical research with bold visual design, creating performances that are as emotionally resonant as they are technically extraordinary. Whether performing in black box theatres, opera houses, post-industrial nunneries, or digital platforms, he continues to expand the language of contemporary juggling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17082,"template":"","class_list":["post-17083","artistinresidense","type-artistinresidense","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAbout the artist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
