Mirror and music does not exist in reality.
It reflects and multiplies what we see, or what we strongly imagine.
A different dimension from the real world.
Something yet unknown. Never to be known for sure.
But something so sure.
So what does this mean for the body?
Dancers expose their bodies into this new dimension of reality, filled with music and light.
The most recent group piece by Saburo Teshigawara, with 8 dancers.

Saburo Teshigawara
A clear blue sky, as empty as a hungry stomach
A mirror doesn’t cast the past
Nothing appears on the surface of a mirror
You can see through it, but nothing exists
Mirror and… music, duplify the world
Our world is already broken behind the mirror
Hidden People behind the mirror
Refractive index of light
Solubility of light
Body and music
The flow of respiring music
Numbers will melt and disappear, if infinitely multiplied
At night
The sun smells of a burnt shadow
Breath
A clear blue sky, as empty as a hungry stomach
Countless breaths come and go
A pilot avoiding the radio wave
Poem of humidity
Life
Morning…
