New Work (tentative)”
Moto Takahashi

Using the sense of a traditional Japanese ghost story as a starting point, Takahashi constructs a story and creates a world through his body. The combination of the original methods and the blank spaces and pauses in the ghost storytelling weaves together not only fear and anxiety, but also the sadness and nostalgia hidden therein, and a sense that someone once existed. The body living in the present creates a new dialogue between the classical and contemporary worlds.
