Business Overview

Awakenu Yume (Excerpt from the Wakamurasaki chapter of The Tale of Genji): Inspired by the poem exchanged between Hikaru Genji and Fujitsubo no Miya in the Wakamurasaki chapter of The Tale of Genji, she created this work and performed it as an exhibition performance. This performance focuses on the word "virtual" as an actual theme and tries to reconsider it. The noun means "the condition of being real and original in nature or effect but not original in appearance or form". When an image brought about by an extremely private act (performance) itself, called phantom touching, emerges, one is in phantom touching the act of appreciation itself.
