Here are some image defacements that were developed by the cast during the process of Superperfect. This idea was used during the performance as cast members drew on their own image while describing how they see themselves and changes they would like to make.
During the week, the Superperfect ensemble played with the ideas and offers made by Nibroll artists Mitsushi Yanaihara (fashion designer) and Keisuke Takahashi (Video artist). The cast played with jeans that had been sewn together at the feet, a super long jacket and creating choreography that interacted with video interviews made by cast members.
Shopfront artists and young people have come together again with Nibroll for intensive rehearsals – leading up to a season of work in Yokohama at the end of this week. Check out some pictures from the first 2 days of rehearsals in Japan.
The Superperfect ensemble busily prepare for performance week – here are some pictures from Tuesday nights technical rehearsal.
