With her body, a tightwire and a physical composition that draws on the Japanese rope art of Shibari, Hanna Moisala’s WireDo, tells a mesmerizing story of stepping out to the unknown. With its three-dimensional view Wiredo explores the inner balance of human behaviour, with the question "what happens to the body when it chooses to surrender and be manipulated?" Daring stunts on tighwire combined with Moisala’s captivating presence and skilled rope manipulation offer an unprecedented spectacle.
