Haircuts by children

Mammalian Diving Reflex, Canada

“Haircuts by Children” is exactly what the title implies: a group of children are given a crash course in hairdressing and run a salon where they offer free haircuts. “Haircuts By Children” invites you to take part in an event that will test your courage and faith in the future.

With their work, Mammalian Diving Reflex attempt to overwhelm audiences with ideas and sensations so as to abandon intellect and allow intuition to lead the way. Mammalian Diving Reflex create performances by looking for contradictions to whip into aesthetically scintillating experiences. They develop site and social-specific performance events, theatre productions, participatory installations, videos, art objects and theoretical texts to foster dialogue and dismantle barriers between individuals of all backgrounds by bringing people together in new and unusual ways.
