The piece begins with a solitary figure observing her own shadow.
She studies its color, its texture, its weight—wondering if it truly belongs to her.
In a quiet, meditative dialogue, she confronts herself.
A story unfolds, not in words, but in movement.
Each gesture becomes a question. Each pause, a moment of listening.
She seeks a confirmation, a grounding sense
that what she sees,
what she feels, is truly her.



dancing drawing project     : me = mi

the piece combining dance and drawing was created by hinako yukimoto.
on July 6, 2025, the premiere
performance of me = mi took place
outdoors in nature, in Harlingen, in collaboration with japanese pianist Kanako Inoue.
the performance featured both improvised piano and a piece by Bach— the French Sarabande.
amid the sounds of the wind and birds, the performances was transformed into a dialogue with the natural world, resonating with its surrounding.

hinako yukimoto reflects :
"i often feel the need to pause and ask-me, how is mi?
what's happening in that quiet space inside you?
in me = mi, i speak to myself — the one reflected back at me,
like a shadow, a double, a quiet layer
beneath.
with this piece,
i invite the audience into that gentle moment, where me and mi can listen to each other."
