Welcome to My Restless Night

2024

Performance Video Extract

In the corner of the Crypt Gallery, Yui Yamamoto welcomes visitors to immerse themselves in her psychological and physical experience of a restless night. Driven by high pressure, stress, anxiety, and uncertainty about the future, Yamamoto undergoes insomnia as well as its unpleasant effects.In this live performance, the artist will be affected by physical and sensory interruptions through animated visuals and sounds operated in live. Performer’s heartbeats (live recorded) are amplified in Crypt space, sometimes distorted throughout the performance. This project is a collaboration among multidisciplinary artist panna hyun for creating interactive visuals, Natsuko Yonezawa for art direction, sound design, and real-time program operation.
