Solo Project: A Body in Places

A Body in Places is the omnibus title of Eiko’s first solo project. Its scale and modes of presentation vary radically and incorporate both performative and non-performative elements, including photo exhibitions, video installations, and film screenings from her A Body in Fukushima project. Central to the project is a drive to explore non-traditional venues and to respond to the innate characteristics of each place. Performing as a soloist, Eiko willfully partners with the particularities of places and viewers, daring at times to present herself as a nuisance.

Eiko was featured in Danspace Project’s PLATFORM 2016: A Body in Places and performed solos in intimate places at St. Mark’s Church and around the East Village. Throughout the project, Eiko has made herself radically available.
