Park Keito is a Barcelona-based association established in 2017, where the work of Japanese performer and choreographer Kotomi Nishiwaki and composer, improviser, and sound designer Miquel Casaponsa converges. Their research interests span various disciplines such as movement, sound, and visual art to choreograph stage pieces and create installations. As part of the Eufònic STNBL call, we are bringing back their piece “Yukedo Yukedo”: a performance that combines movement, sound, and poetry, taking as its starting point the tanka poems written by Takahide Nishiwaki (Kotomi’s grandfather) during his travels across Japan. It unfolds as a choreographic journey through these brief impressions that reflect on the ephemeral nature of human existence, transcendence, and connection with nature, constructing landscapes through embodiment, spatial transformation, and words. The piece has previously been presented at the Moujuïc Festival 2022 (Montjuïc Barracks) and Sala Taro (Barcelona, 2024).
