Mobile Shadow Projection Theater
Mobile Shadow Projection Theater is a series of urban projection performances.
Andrea Steudel has collaborated with numerous artists to assemble and deploy a portable projection system tailored for shadow puppetry and live-drawing. Critical to this venture is custom performance software created by Ali Momeni. It is deployed ubiquitously in the public sphere; on city structures and landscape.

Weisman performance rough out
Charcoal animation of baby’s rattle projected on performer’s back; white light on small wall

Weisman performance rough out
Animation alternates between frantic surges and stillness,
intensity of a rattling noise corresponds,
as performer punches through wall, then introverts
projected charcoal residue remains

Weisman performance rough out
Performer savagely rips open wall to ‘release’ projected animation and their imposing silhouette onto distant, larger wall
