Hide Your Fires Project Begins!

: Interdisciplinary & Immersive Exploration
Between 2017 and 2019, I was deeply involved in developing Hide Your Fires: Butoh Lady Macbeth, but we were forced to pause that journey due to the pandemic.
However, I never lost the desire to complete what we started—and I have always envisioned this work evolving with  projections! This year, I like to bring it to life!!! New Adventure begins!

Everybody has 
something unexpected to offer and 
the job of acting is
 to pull it out of each other.
