The Yard

The Yard wil present A Body in Places, Eiko Otake's first solo project. Central to the project is a drive to explore non-traditional venues and to respond to the innate characteristics of each specific place. At the core of each variant is Eiko alone, projecting and exploring solitude, gaze, fragility and intimacy. She will offer a strange and intense experience that invites, almost forces, the viewer's gaze to engage the performer's gaze. In this intimate format, the conversation that follows a performance becomes an integral part of the experience for audience and artist alike. At The Yard, Eiko will perform in select site-specific outdoor and indoor locations around the Island.
