Shiro Takatani - Tangent © Yoshikazu Inoue
The work explores the theme of liminal space: the extraordinary within the ordinary, the strange realm where two contrasting elements both coexist at the same time.
Rooted in the inter-relationality of art, science, and technology, this is a serene, beautiful, and dramatic stage work that deftly transcends the border between the visual and performing arts.
