It’s the same for all my works: it’s not so much about controlling the viewer’s point of view as it is about setting up a space which will encourage viewers to be proactive in how they look at the work. — Tabaimo

FRUITS BORNE OUT OF RUST—a multimedia performance collaboration by the artist Tabaimo and dancer-choreographer Maki Morishita— using drawings, video installations, and live music to “probe the themes that lurk beneath daily existence”—begins its premiere engagement in the United States this week at Redcat.*

I’m awaiting a song from afar, from afar, a song of goodbye from afar. For now I’ve seen the game I was playing, slowly leaving the earth and drifting far among the stars. — Simone Forti*
