Business Overview
In the past, I have read books such as "Soil and Internal Organs" (written by David Montgomery and Anne Biclay, translated by Natsumi Kataoka), and whenever I have listened to the talks of experts on viruses, bacteria, and other microorganisms, I have deeply sympathized with their content and reflected on the current state of human society. What we eat and excrete, and what we use in our lives, changes the microbial world. That we are therefore threatening our own existence. He believes that the abstract nature of dance inspires the imagination of the audience and allows them to ask specific questions and respond to their bodies. We have received comments from customers who have seen performances in the past, such as, "My internal organs started to move while I was watching," and "For some reason, the pain disappeared and I was able to walk normally after the performance." These days, there is a lot of visual stimulation, so I carefully examined what kind of information to include, and I tried to present things that are invisible and untouchable on the stage, and I continued to present things that speak to the audience's five senses and body, giving them a bird's-eye view of what they contain and what they do.
