    • MIYU KAWAI 「Re」

      MIYU KAWAI "Re"
      Performer:ERI MATSUI

      Description of the work
      “The word ‘challenge’ does not apply only to trying something new. When you continue the same thing for a long time, there are times when it becomes difficult. Sometimes it seems meaningless to continue. But even if you lose your way, all you have to do is go back to where you stated, no matter how many times. I want you to try to remember how you felt when you started.”
      This is something Haruko Nagaya, vocalist for the band Ryokuoshoku Shakai once said. I created this piece based on these words.

    • Shimojima Reisa “Monkey in a diaper”

      SAI Dance Festival Grand Prize

      Shimojima Reisa “Monkey in a diaper”
      Performer:Shimojima Reisa

      Description of the work
      Shinichiro Kurimoto says that a Human being is a monkey wearing extra underpants in “Monkeys in underwear - what kind of creature is human being ? .” , one of his writings published in 1981.
      It is written to Homo sapiens that she is not only a monkey undressed, but also the animal takes on or off her underwear and invites a male by the behavior of taking off her panties. As such, she takes the strange action systematically. Kurimoto explains an action of the Homo sapiens by replacing a sexual behavior, a law, morality, religion with expression, "the underwear".
      How am I, then? I still wear diapers. In other words, I wear the underwear which is not allowed to be taken off for a long time. I take a diaper off just when I exchange it for a new one. But in fact, I think this to be comfortable.
      Am I a human being? A monkey? Or neither?
      I am dreaming of putting on the solemn underpants like a human being someday. And it is my wish that I may end my life while throwing off my underpants gloriously.
      Now at first, I will try to wear underpants on this fictitious stage.
      ※This piece was created with the theme of Japanese cult religion "Aum Shinrikyo”.
    • AKARI HOSHINO 「I am the real adult.」

      AKARI HOSHINO "I am the "real" adult."
      Performer:ERI MATSUI

      Description of the work
      They say you should behave yourself and be a good girl.
      Unconsciously, I do what adults want me to do and stay on the straight and narrow path.
      Sometimes I wonder, “would I feel happier if I could speak my mind, express what is in my heart?”
      But I will stay quiet.
      I can keep secrets because I am the "real" adult.
