Men wrestling with 500 kg of tires and somehow making it playful. PNEU turns a ridiculous amount of rubber into a surprising playground where strength, humor and imagination collide. Four performers lift, roll, balance and carry their unruly partners, discovering moments of trust, rivalry and joy inside the effort. In this work, Viktor Černický continues his exploration of encounters between bodies and objects, creating a world full of absurd logic, physical intensity and delicate humor.

“Why do we always feel the worst after a few days of doing nothing? How many people work out every day just to maintain their condition? Our bodies are antifragile factories that must expose themselves to discomfort simply in order to survive. We constantly push beyond our own limits, and in doing so, we grow. Tires are among our closest partners — and our greatest enemies. It depends on whether we sit behind the wheel, or use them as obstacles for movement, as toys to lift, jump over, or push away. Sharing discomfort and effort — that’s what connects us and allows us to transcend our own being. We are a community of restlessness.”
