KIAC

A collaborative project started in 2024 at the ADAM artist lab in Bangkok and Taipei by Indonesian choreographer Leu Wijee and Japanese theater director Nagara Wada.

Two artists from different backgrounds will combine massage and gossiping as performative elements—movement and storytelling—and explore the relationship between the two through field research in Taipei, Indonesia, and Kinosaki Onsen. By crossing their own cultures, languages, and artistic fields, they explore a new grammar of expression.

At the work-in-progress showing, the artists will present a performance created during their month-long residency. Through conversations with the audience, they will connect this experience to the next steps of the project.
