About:
A contemporary butoh work, R/evolution(s) reimagines butoh for today while
carrying its inheritance forward. It brings together Conan Amok – heir to
the lineage of Dairakudakan, one of Japan's leading butoh companies – and
contemporary dancers renewing the form from within. Grounded in Amok's
'multi layered body' method, developed through a fusion of butoh and
sculptural practice, the work explores revolution as both orbit and
radical transformation. Deep bass and wadaiko drums create a club-like
ritual atmosphere, inviting audiences to encounter butoh anew. This work
is part of Wings: International Dance Project by Dance Base Yokohama for
Emerging Creators.
