Repetition (Aomori Project), an evolving dance project linking Wales and Japan, conceived by Sioned Huws and performed with Reina Kimura, Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff, 9 June 2012.
‘Aomori is at the Northern most tip of Honshu Island, with short summers and long arctic winters. Forests of blue-green, mountains of soft linear impressions, seas of deep navy. In winter, the repetitive, silent snowfall arrives. A landscape transformed. The heartbeat slows down; the body is overwhelmed by a desire to rest, to lay horizontally in this blanket of white.’ (Sioned Huws, choreographer and dancer)
