Aine Nakamura will present her work Breath in this World. The work is for spoken words, sung voice and body movement. "As I see the moon in the night's darkness, which receives the light from the sun, the earth changing the light's shape with the earth’s shadow, I think about light and darkness, lines and shapes, wounds and love, and humans’ eyes."
Aine Nakamura is a performer of voice and body, poet, and artist. She focuses on the potentialities of an injured voice and the listening and sensing bodies. She often writes words and considers shapes as if her throat is a membrane and each body part is a shape, phenomenon among worldly phenomena, in relations. Through her practice, while aiming to be a vessel, she understands about herself and pursues meanings of lines, seeing and connecting.
She is currently based in the Bay Area/East Bay, and presents works locally and internationally. Her recent works include solo performance Breath in this World premiered at Indexical in SC, which continues to evolve at ZK/U Berlin, Baiju Theater near Beijing, UrBANGUILD in Kyoto, and will be presented on this occasion; month-long site-specific exhibition and performance project hands on tape, presented at The Lab in SF; solo performance Under an Unnamed Flower during an invitation to the 50th International Theatre Festival at the Venice Biennale; solo multiple performance project Circle hasu We plant seeds in the spring of mountains, presented at Theatertreffen at Berliner Festspiele after its premiere at the Gallatin Galleries in NY. She also engages in listening in relation to wounds and soul work, which resulted in her performance at The Listening Biennial Singapore. She is also a committed collaborator and improviser. Through collaborations, she develops her approach to attunement, spaces and listening.
