Profile
【 Paper Company project】
"If we look at the archives alone, are the performances that we haven't done and the ones that we've done but haven't been able to see the same thing?". The paper company project uses the “fabrication of theatrical performances ” as a framework to experience the“ impossibility of reproduction ” of performing arts.
