Why do we use the circle as a metaphor all the time but not as an actual space?

Except for campfires and fights, not many things in our society really seem to call for a circle.

I mistrust flexibility.

(flexibility is often avoiding conflict rather than dealing with it)

But, when I was asked to make a circular scenography for an outdoor dance piece, I decided to work with some good craftsman to make it as flexible as possible.

Flexibility, at it’s best, can allow a space to try things out, to doubt and to adapt.

And travelling like a tourist to many different places and situations, this scenography will need the talent of adaptation more than anything else.

Maybe this circle will once be something else because a new situation forces it to change.
