Cupola

A striking shot from the exhibition Cupola which marks the celebration of the 250th Anniversary of UK modern circus in 2018. The exhibition, at the fabulous Cartwright Hall in Bradford, West Yorkshire, showcases the work of local aerial circus company Skinning the Cat who toured internationally 1988 - 2002 and could often be seen performing in Lister Park as part of the Bradford Festival.

 

Skinning the Cat lived in Manningham and many of the artists involved to make their shows were from Bradford. These skills included set, prop and costume design, performance, photography, graphic design and marketing. As well as practicing trapeze above the heads of footballers in Manningham Sports Centre, Skinning the Cat created their work as members of Bradford arts studios in Thornton.
