From Tokyo (video/sound, 15' 16"), 2012, the Site/Memory Mapping Project
This work draws on our experiences of the city, which we have repeatedly visited since 2005, and on stories told
during the Tokyo Marathon Walk (live event, 2012). We evoke the conflicting senses of isolation and connection,
alienation and belonging, drawing a portrait of the city in the 21st century.
This was shown at the Aberystwyth Storytelling Festival 2012 in Aberystwyth, U.K.
The Site/Memory Mapping Project in collaboration with Rebecca Woodford-Smith is an ongoing project
exploring walking as a performative dialogue.
