is a magician and a creative consultant with a sharp focus on contemporary and interdisciplinary ways to present and experience magic. Exploring the grey area between reality and illusion, he is inviting the audience to consider and question the nature of wonder and astonishment itself. In his experimental magic practice he playfully addresses the absurd, weird and irritating qualities of magic.

With background and experience in traditional entertainment magic he has turned his attention to challenging the conventional rules of the craft. Disillusioned by artificial and dusty magic tropes he pursues the goal of using the tools of contemporary theatre to uncover the blind spots in our perception. 

Luis Carr completed formal training in Magie Nouvelle at the CNAC, Centre National des Arts du Cirque in France in 2020. He founded the collective BLINDSPOTLAB and he is working collaboratively with visual and performance artists to explore new interactive formats for staging magic.
