“Kasane no Irome - Piling up Colors”: A stage art-design of Japanese dance

Yokohama, Japan, 2020-03-11 - 

For a long time, the Japanese have been piling up colors from olden times to express sacred things. Also, piling up paper with square silhouettes has been used as a thing representing sacred depth. The designer created a space that transforms the atmosphere by changing from various colors with the squares "piling up" as a motif.


Panels flying in the air put the focus on the dancer while covering the space above the stage. The panels also depict the appearance of light passing through the space that can not be seen without them. The panels were made from a mesh of ultra-thin transparent threads made of a double-layered resin. This allows panels to receive a moderate amount of light, and the panels will appear and disappear. The panels overlap intricately; the plurality of strings that hang each panel is calculated to not cross each other.


This space focuses on Japanese-dance.
