Inner note #1 外出自粛下における自室で記すためのある日、ある時間の“note”
阿部 真理亜
アーティスト／コンテポラリーダンサーである阿部は、外出自粛期間中に自宅と自身の身体との関係を再考し、パフォーマンス映像を制作した。自宅の窓から見える光景から始まる映像は、作者が住む築45年の家に呼応するように動く身体とテキストから成る。家は身体を受け止める装置であり、身体を構成する成分でもあるが、生活の前提であるが故に、意識されることはそう多くはない。本作は自粛期間中に身体表現者である阿部が見出した自宅と身体の円環を描いたものだ。
A “note” recorded on a certain day in one's room during the voluntary lockdown
Maria Abe
Abe, an artist and contemporary dancer, reconsidered the relationship between her home and her body during the period of stay-at-home request and created a performance video. The video, which begins with a window scene from her home, consists of text and her body that seemingly moves in response to the 45-year-old house in which she lives. A house is a piece of equipment that accepts the body as well as a part of the body, but because it is a prerequisite to life, we rarely pay it attention. This work is about the relation between home and the body that Abe, a physical artist, found during the period of stay-at-home request.
