Invented Apparatus - Jill Katzenberger & Cressie Mae
INVENTED APPARATUS - ALL LEVELS
Sunday 10-1130 (TH)
Invented apparatus' unleash unique and creative visual elements, while inspiring new pathways of movement. They tell stories, set the scene, and give life to characters. Jill and Cressie have been reimagining this art form on invented apparatus' for over 20 combined years. They will share sequences that explore the shapes and space provided by unusual objects as well as some of the lessons learned when designing invented apparatus from scratch. Participants will get to play on several creations by VVolfy metalworks, a national expert in invented apparatus fabrication.
Jill Katzenberger enjoys flying, flipping, and frolicking in the air...also eating Swedish fish...but not always at the same time. She has been teaching fabric, rope, trapeze, and hoop through Aircat Aerial Arts for over 10 years and performs with The Fractal Circus, Lunar Fire, and The Junkyard Socialites. Jill is an educator, exhibit designer, event producer, and entrepreneur. She has been orchestrating innovative educational experiences for 20+ years and teaches science-based aerial instruction with an emphasis on wrap mechanics.
Cressie Mae is a Boulder local performance artist and coach. Since the pandemic she has realized her love for coaching private lessons and teaching circus arts to children. Her current passion project is working as the Youth Program Executive Director for the Boulder Circus Center. While she works out of many local studios, Cressie Mae calls the BCC her home away from home. When she isn’t in the studios coaching or creating, you can find her in the air and on stages with The Fractal Society, The Junkyard Socialites, Luxe Entertainment and other local collaborations.
