Business Overview
In each of her works, Kurata Midori confronts herself and others and creates works of events that arise when she stands together. Regardless of the genre of his work, Ameya Hosui has continued to create with a fundamental interest in life as his theme. They met in 2019. They started to interact with each other through a collaboration project. The project at the time had to be canceled due to the spread of COVID-19, but the two continued to interact and engage in constant dialogue throughout the years leading up to the conclusion of the game. For the first time ever, the two directors have worked together on this project, creating their first video and performance works. The film takes on the subject of personal histories that intersect in the film and the whereabouts of each individual. The performances in Tokyo are created in a special way, with each place creating their own creations and bringing them together. This is the end of the joint project "Kurata Midori and Ameya Hosui," which together experimented with production methods and output forms.

Profile
Ameya Hosui
In 2012, the group was established after the performance of 'Irikuchi de kuchi' at the Kunisaki Peninsula Art Festival. The aim is to create works that continue to question the meaning of life and life itself by pursuing original expression cultivated through casting without professional actors and site-specific creative methods that maintain a documentary nature. In February, 2022, he published "Maison de Merci, Kofu Sumiyoshi, Adachi Ward, Mie Prefecture, 0 minutes on foot, bathing" as a joint project with Midori KURATA.
