Statement

A multimedia autobiographical performance that scrutinizes the condition of masculinity in the year 2018.

‘Even though there were only four of us in this small hot room, he gave so much in the performance. At one point he was rollerblading around the tiny room with the speed and conviction of Tanya Harding about to do a triple axel. He awkwardly jumped up and the skates clacked against the floor when he landed, his ankles wobbled, he almost fell, it was so vulnerable and yet heroic. Will never forget that moment.' Hikari Yokoyama.
