Business Overview

Artists dealing with physical expression gather to share and refine their creative methods and processes. The main six members, Takumi-chan, Risako Okuizumi, Yuki Kobayashi, Takuya Takemoto, Saori Harasaori and Arata Mino, acted as hosts for each of the four events. All of them are young performance artists, stage writers, and choreographers in their late 20s and early 30s who are actively working in Japan and overseas. Each of them delved deeply into how to connect their performances and creative activities with society and their individual activities from different professional perspectives, such as dance, theater, art, photography, and architecture. The discussions lasted an average of five hours each time.

Profile

[PORT]
"PORT" is a platform whose primary purpose is to create opportunities for mutual criticism and discourse between artists engaged in both the fields of performance art and performing art. It is named PORT by its acronym because it is developed from the viewpoint of performance/or/theory.
