Information

"Since the fall of 2018, I have been improvising dances in various places almost every day and recording them on video. What started as a practice will gradually change its shape and lead to more and more interesting discoveries.

For this time's "in, from, within here" I wanted to create site-specific work that takes advantage of the characteristics of the place and space. The reason I chose Nitehinchi for the venue was because the space was distinctive and I felt like I could come up with a variety of ideas.

There are ideas that can be discovered only on the spot, and it's interesting because it's different depending on the location.

I think it was a very interesting experiment because Sascia, who performed with me this time, searched for sounds from the environment and performed while performing.

I would like to try it again in various spaces.

In addition, I present my works in a variety of ways, such as presenting the work which I made from inspirations I got from specific location, place on stage or using streaming based on discoveries made on the spot or in the area."
