Contrast and context in Shanghai thrived in the 1930’s. As sound became more
mobile, technology more advanced, full orchestras and bands could be heard in
every home and office. But as if in quiet protest the mime also became a famous
figure to everyone. The soundless movement, the silent walls, surroundings and
invisible items were novel and still held their own peculiarity. Whether it was
in mock of the new found technology or a protest of what is reality mimes grew
to popularity. Their true proclivity lies in their ability to make the world
around them come alive with complete and utter silence. [Lelia Pollett]
