Abstract

The PING Trilogy is a development of original costume performance piece ‘PING’ by designer Daphne Karstens (co-devised and performed by Lorraine Smith). The project aims to develop the trilogy PING, PANG, PONG, which can be performed as a full performances or as separate pieces. This first R&D stage of the trilogy (in Amsterdam) is funded by Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie (awarded to Daphne Karstens) and focuses on the development of PANG. Themes explored include the relationship between the human body and celestial bodies, transformations of complex three-dimensional shapes as costume on the body, and experimentation of costume and light.PING has been exhibited and performed around the world, most recently in Russia as part of the ‘Innovative Costume of the 21st Century: The Next Generation’ exhibition in Moscow which took place at various locations. ‘PING’ has also been exhibited in Finland (‘Critical Costume 2015’), China (‘Evolving Design for Performance’ exhibition at the ‘National Centre for Performing Arts’, Bejing and ‘Mingyuan Contemporary Art Museum’, Shanghai), United Kingdom (‘CONFLUX’ exhibition 2015 in London) where ‘PING’ won the ‘Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust Prize’ and Taiwan (‘World Stage Design 2017’) where ‘PING’ was awarded the silver award in Costume Design.
