Performance

Title: The River

Contents (Concept): The river is the flow of our soul that crosses the minds of each of us.

The river always runs near human beings. At times, it leads the life to a different phase crossing over the other side of life when passing through every turn.

The warm-hearted river that controls the triste and beautiful feelings of life penetrates the human life like a vein and guides to another cosmos existing in our heart.

Comparing the life to river, this is an image performance that symbolically expresses various aspects of our life.

 

Title: The moon and sixpence

Contents (Concept): The moon is an ideal symbolizes madness and art.

The six pence indicate reality that symbolizes property and sensibility lust for earthly honor.

The goldfish in a fishbowl is a figure of doer himself.

Water for fish is same as bread for men.

Although there's no water, goldfish is bouncing and showing its tough motion to us.

Maybe people today who are wandering isolated gap of between a reality and an ideal are

not different from a goldfish.
