In recent years, everyone has heard the phrase "multicultural coexistence" at least once, but there is still a possibility of multicultural coexistence in the creative field.
Based on this awareness of the issue, KINO Meeting, which develops video production projects with "people with overseas roots", has recently planned a lecture program called "Study Group on Art and Multicultural Coexistence".
In addition to KINO Meeting, two groups of guest lecturers were invited as guest lecturers: "Nmatsupos", a contemporary dance company that has performed dance works and projects with people of various nationalities and generations, and Miya Nishio, an artist who has been working on the creation of works and workshops with local people around the world on the theme of clothing and communication. Starting from the methods and practical experiences of each creative field, we will explore the possibilities of expression and the ways of communication that arise from collaborative relationships.
Please join us for an alternative learning opportunity for multicultural coexistence.
