D I V E R S E / Along The Meridian Rivers - A Traveler by Yuko Kominami

The piece explores body and life as a passage, meridians (in Chinese medicine) as rivers and acupuncture points as ports, where connections, communications, meeting, crossing, and voyages can happen. The performance aims to be also a topological playground of ever-changing constellations with acupuncture points as stars. It starts as a solo performance and ends in an invitation for a play of connections through these stars (acupuncture points) and rivers (meridians).

So good to finally meet you! On this milky way running through our body.
