This is a rectangular image with a sepia background and a black and white large circle in the centre. The circle is a portrait of a woman who is naked from the bust up and is staring at the camera. Her hair is shaped into the horns of a bull.
Three images side by side:
1) the silhouette of a woman with a suitcase, against the video projection of a giant renaissance painting
2) a woman in a white dress sitting at a cafe table, drinking a negroni and holding a book that says WHEN THINGS FALL APART
3) the silhouette of a woman holding a cigarette lighter with a flame, set against a deep blue background
A zoetrope template with the Ten Bull images positioned around the outside. Inside of the template, the title of the show is written.

PILGRIM (A pilgrim in search of a bull named Carlo)

Following the footprints of the elusive bull (in the Zen tradition of the Ten Ox-herding pictures), an accidental pilgrim embarks on a journey to recover her lost faith in love, or perhaps faith itself. As she wanders deeper into the birthplace of the Western foundational stories, she is guided by an unseen hand back to her own spiritual origin, to retrieve something she'd exiled long ago.

Performed by Kate Walder, with original music and striking visual imagery from award-winning composer Max Lyandvert and designer Michael Hankin, this solo clown-based work takes us on a timeless quest through Rome, Athens and Jerusalem - the great cities of myth, reason and revelation that may just save us yet.
