Dancer and choreographer Megumi Kamimura - uncompromisingly being attached to the substance of movements and the body itself, in her pieces uses layers of simple movements to structure the space. She arranges the dance, visual arts and music indistinctively like the very same artistic element. In her new work, she goes one step further in unfolding her unique worldview. What kind of horizon becomes visible behind the conceivably smallest choreographical layer?
