On 21 September , Mr. Koike will lead a one-day, six-hour “Spatial Production Workshop” and on 2 October a symposium “The Possibility and Value of Creativity and Cultural Impact of Art.

In the workshop on 21 September, participants will create a work that can only be called performing arts, utilizing the characteristics of the place and the participants, as well as “slow movement,” a training method that sharpens the body’s senses and awareness of time. How about surrendering your head and body to this stimulating 6-hour experience?
