Work Overview
A music installation for video, miniature percussion, violin and
harp taking place in far west Japan.
Yakumo Honjin is inspired by a 280 year old samurai
hotel located on Lake Shinji. The work has evolved from a
creative development residency which took place in the samurai
hotel in 2007. The result is a series of performances and
projection based installation presented at Karakoro Art Studio in
Matsue exploring the concept of 'oku' - or hidden - a theory
which informs traditional architecture, garden design and music.
