Artist talk following 'Black Hole'
A kaleidoscopic performance art experience using movement, light, and visual art. 'Black Hole' is Shamel Pitts’ third creation of the “black series” and proposes to engage an audience in a way that it condenses the experience deeply into a colorfully hypnotic journey, without exit. After the show there is the possibility to start an open exchange about the work in process.

About the venue
Dock 11
The factory level of Dock 11 in Kastanienallee in Prenzlauer Berg is a rehearsals room, teaching studio and dance stage in one. The stage programme has interdisciplinary supplements such as theatre, performance, literature, music, visual art, film and club art – however the main focal point of every performance is on purely dance elements. Together with its other premises in EDEN***** in Berlin-Pankow, Dock 11 has established itself as an important part of the Berlin dance scene. The unique combination of teaching, rehearsal and stage generates an exciting change of perspectives in both the artists and pupils, as well as among the audience. (source: visitberlin.de)
About the performance
Black Hole
BLACK HOLE is a kaleidoscopic performance art experience using movement, light, and visual art. Although the title is derived from the cosmic phenomenon of a Black Hole, it is not a work on explaining/sharing the science of it. More so, it proposes to use the idea of the transformational environment of a Black Hole to create an atmosphere of mystery towards what is encompasses, What it can contain in it. BLACK HOLE proposes to engage an audience in a way that it condenses the experience deeply into a colorfully hypnotic journey, without exit.
