The 2020 pandemic reminded us of how vital the connection between people is and led the performing arts to expand their value and possibilities beyond the theater. It is important that the performers on stage not only become central figures but also feel the world, move forward, and bring about change with the audience. “Cassandra’s Field of Flowers” attempts to create space for the public inside the performance, inspired by traditional Japanese Noh theater. It is a work that makes us think about reality, unreality, the unknown, and the invisible world that extends outside the theater while considering the situation in which human beings are placed.

Japan
Tomo Sone is an independent choreographer and performer whose work pursues human relationships, presence, and inner struggles, whilst being inspired by a variety of interdisciplinary activities. She is currently exploring the combination between digital technology and technology of the body as a means of transcending the boundary between performer and audience, and will present the results of this exploration in September 2023 at the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria. Sone was a finalist in the international solo contest at the 5th Festival Internacional de Danza Contemporánea de la Ciudad de México in 2020 (Mexico). Her works are presented amongst others at the Suzanne Dellal Center (Israel), the Gdansk Dance Festival (Poland), and the Kyoto Art Center (Japan).
