Esther de Monteflores

Esther de Monteflores is an American circus artist, physical performer and choreographer. In her work, Esther seeks a balance between technical skill and expressive movement. Circus arts allow her to create work that is both intimate and spectacular, using the inherent element of risk to focus attention and spark imagination. De Monteflores’ latest work, Tiny Cities, is an absurd and whimsical celebration of Columba Livia, the common pigeon. Perched on a power line, windowsill or park bench, the pigeon is the wildness in our cities, inviting us to change our perspective and see our homes in a new light. She performed Tiny Cities in Yanaguana Garden.
