History in the Making is a performance created by visual artist Keren Cytter. It is a multi-layered performance piece, seen through the shifting perspectives of the different characters, juxtaposing theatrical forms in a constantly dissolving context. The light design used bold, primary colours and shadows to show, and at times confuse, the continually changing perspectives of the narrative.
