Transfield Studio／トランスフィールドスタジオ
Information
アーティストの山川陸、パフォーミングアーツプロデューサーの武田侑子によるユニット。国内外を問わず様々な都市でフィールドワークを展開し、ツアー型作品を創作している。「どうすれば集まった我々は共にいられるのか」という問いを考え続けるため、誰もが認める都市の大前提に実感を持って迫ることを試みる。2022年、Esplanade主催のContemporary Performing Arts Research Residencyに参加。主な作品に『Sand (a)isles』（2019・フェスティバル/トーキョー2019）、『三度、参る』（2020・豊岡演劇祭2020フリンジ）、『Lines and Around Lines』（2022）。

An artist duo comprised of architect Rick Yamakawa and performing arts manager Yuko Takeda.
Through the creation and presentation of the works, Transfield Studio continues to consider "How can we be together?”. It is also an exploration of how close we can get to the basic premise of the post-modern city, which everyone agrees is that "we live by gathering together" and "we live by sharing limited resources," with a real understanding of this premise through our own bodies. For this reason, we conduct fieldwork in the actual cities where we create our works. Touring performance is the core of our creative practice, and we value the audience's experience of the city through their own bodies.
We started our work in 2018 by researching Phnom Penh (Cambodia). In 2019 we researched Manila (Philippine), Vientiane (Laos), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), and Tokyo (Japan). In 2022, we stayed Singapore for 2 month as a resident artist. In addition, we've worked with Philippino performance maker the late JK Anicoche from 2019 to 2021.
