Business Overview
A new performance by the dance company N///K (Natural Killer), led by dancer and choreographer Okuno Miwa. This work, which was presented at Work in Progress in March 2018 and performed at the Kyoto Art Center in June, is a new work that depicts the voices and sounds of bodies living fiercely in space, with “pores/skin ” as the boundary between the viewer and the work, based on Okuno's theme of“ the disappearing physicality of today ”. A pre-talk on the relationship between the body and art was also held at the same time, with Dr. Toshiro Inaba, Doctor of Medicine, Assistant Professor of Cardiology at the University of Tokyo Hospital as a guest.

Profile
[N ///K (Natural Killer)]
Formed mainly by Miwa Okuno in 2014. Together with musician Yohei Fujishiro, he begins to create a space where the body, images, music and objects exist equally. Like natural killer cells, he is an activist who has a delicate sense of the problems (cancer/virus) that exist in society and all environments, which is the driving force behind his work.
