MIS-SING ONE

dance performance

by Yui Kawaguchi (Japan)

3 December at 20:45
Convitto Palmieri – Lecce

In medieval Japanese folklore, it was believed that old instruments and containers, after existing for one hundred years, would gain a spiritual essence and become “tsukumogami” (a term referring to any object that becomes sentient and alive after its hundredth birthday). In this solo performance, Yui Kawaguchi explores the abyss of aging that connects all living beings, blending elements of folklore with humor and poetry.

Yui Kawaguchi, a Japanese dancer and choreographer, trained in Tokyo and has worked in Berlin since 2005. She has collaborated with renowned choreographers and showcased her work at international festivals. Notable works include Flying Bach (2010), The City in the Piano with Aki Takase, and recent performances such as The Seven Deadly Sins (2024).
