Conan Amok

The theme of his work is “reinterpretation of body sensation in the modern age. Conan AmokBased on his original butoh technique “Multi Layered Body,” he develops the concept of “movement/transformation” into “permanence/disconnection, movement, replacement, and transformation. He attempts to superimpose and amplify multiple manifest and latent aspects of the subject. In reinterpreting her own basic butoh in her own unique way, Ame collaborates with dancers who have diverse experiences outside of butoh. It is expected to lead to not only a trans-disciplinary fusion, but also to the exposure of new budding possibilities and innovation.
