“The everyday landscape looks a little different”. Women dressed in dresses made from newspaper will appear in Roppongi like a subject in a painting.
The audience and performers will share time and a delicate connection, but without using “words”. Experience the non-verbal atmosphere and landscape of Roppongi with other audience members, share the outdoor space and time, and take with you “this place” and “this moment”.
