“Otake’s oeuvre reflects upon finality through a continuous invocation of the power, passion, and transient performance of life.” —Denver Art Review
Eiko Otake’s (Eiko and Koma) austere, haunting movement work has often commemorated death, time, and place. Joining forces with radical dance-theater artist Wen Hui (Living Dance Studio), she returns to the Walker to premiere a poignant new work forged through deep collaboration. This new performance explores how both performers’ lives have been affected by war — Otake grew up in postwar Japan and Wen in China during the Cultural Revolution. Together, the collaborators embody fierceness tempered by emotional honesty. Their formidable performance combines movement, text, and video as it excavates personal memories of war and its global resonances.
