At Hemway, we’re always delighted to see our eco-friendly and ultra-sparkle glitters enhance artistic projects that push boundaries and captivate audiences. That’s why we’re thrilled to share our role in Damien Jalet’s extraordinary performance, Mirage.
The Vision Behind Mirage
This visually mesmerising production has taken the global stage by storm, blending movement, light, and reflective materials into a transformative dance experience. We are proud to have supplied a significant amount of our eco-friendly and ultra sparkle glitter for this project, helping to create the enchanting, otherworldly visuals that define Mirage.
Damien Jalet, a visionary choreographer, has once again brought an unparalleled depth to the art of movement with Mirage. The performance invites audiences into a world where the boundaries between reality and illusion blur. This transitory piece uses reflective surfaces, refracted light, and glittering elements to mimic the shifting, ephemeral nature of a desert mirage.
Partnering with lighting designer Yuki Nakayama and artist Kohei Nawa, Mirage utilises a combination of intricate choreography and stunning visual effects to transport spectators into a dreamlike state. Glitter plays an essential role here, adding a dazzling, ethereal quality to the performance—a challenge we at Hemway were honoured to help bring to life.
Eco-Friendly Sparkle for an Innovative Performance
When the creative team behind Mirage sought materials that could deliver the show’s signature iridescent brilliance, sustainability was a top priority. At Hemway, we’ve long been committed to providing eco-friendly glitter options that combine maximum sparkle with minimal environmental impact. Our biodegradable glitters, made from plant-based materials, perfectly aligned with the team’s artistic and environmental values.
The glitter we provided for Mirage was not only chosen for its intense sparkle but also for its ability to catch and reflect light in dynamic and unpredictable ways, enhancing the fluidity and dreamlike quality of the performance. From every subtle shimmer to dazzling bursts of light, our glitters have helped to amplify the visual storytelling, immersing audiences in a luminous spectacle.
Collaboration and Creativity
Working alongside the talented team behind Mirage has been an inspiring experience. Seeing our glitters integrated so seamlessly into such a ground-breaking production reaffirms our mission at Hemway: to inspire creativity while remaining conscious of our environmental footprint.
The collaboration reflects the potential of combining sustainable practices with visionary artistry. In Mirage, our glitters are not just decorative elements; they are vital components of the narrative—turning light into an ever-shifting character within the performance.
Sparkle Sustainably with Hemway
At Hemway, we believe in the power of glitter to transform both art and everyday life. Whether it’s a large-scale performance like Mirage or your next DIY project, our eco-friendly and ultra sparkle glitters are designed to add brilliance without compromise.
We are proud to have contributed to a performance as captivating as Mirage, and we look forward to continuing to support creative endeavours around the world with our innovative and sustainable glitter solutions.
