All along the river
The permanence of the desire to act being caught up and surprised
To involve my own body
An inner expression around or in a spiritual butoh and its mazes
'Energy and freedom' - Natsu Nakajima
An endless intricacy and unstable volatile areas
So...
First a wearer out paint and words I came into the theatre-dance through an underlying desire to move literally my artistic expression that is to say to involve my own body. An alternative of butoh expression more spiritual than necessarily dark and tormented imposes its mazes in me. All these forms being the physical features of a whole. After works for the stage gradually actions mainly in the street and video medium became the obvius. As well as the permanence of the desire to be in, to let myself be caught up and surprised.
