”生成AIとArtificial Family”
見えない糸でつながれた不完全な、わたしたちの仮想でも理想でもない「関係」の生成実験
The performance was developed around a white canvas stored in the Tatsumi Hijikata and Natsuyuki Nakanishi Memorial Warehouse, located near Saruhashi Station in Yamanashi Prefecture. Two bodies will confront the canvas, exploring the boundaries between them.
Continuing from the previous performance, two bodies will once again bring the act of eating and the everyday body onto the stage, addressing themes of "birth" and "gender."
"There is also the case of a single apple, which is a landing (descent) of the apple, but if there is no guarantee that I am truly here, it must be considered a water landing. A ship's position can be confirmed by latitude and longitude, but the seabed does not support the ship's weight. The apple might simply be water landing at the boundary between layers, like a ship floating on the surface between different strata of space."
— From "On Still Life" by Natsuyuki Nakanishi
” 容器は、はじめから容器として実在しているわけではない。われわれがある物体を容器にするのである。つまり、不在性は、常に何ものかに対する不在性である。”

Placing the table from Saruhashi warehouse in the middle of the space. The everyday body, sexuality, family... "The Canned Universe" (by Genpei Akasegawa) comes to mind. Exploring the inside and outside surrounding the table.
