Profile

【 Crossings 】
Established in 2018 with the aim of expanding the regional framework of art by reimagining various countries and cities centered on Japan as "one region" from a larger perspective through the "intersection of experiences".
In addition, the target of the expansion of the frame is not limited to the region, but considering all arts such as music, dance, and art as the same "method of expression," through meetings (intersections) with artists in each field, we will make ambitious attempts to show the possibility of new perception of visual and auditory information, including sound and body movement, which can occur when we newly construct movement, sound, and space, and present works.
