Why flowers for the dead? This piece began from this simple question. It seems like a person?s death is linked to those left living by a series of scenes. Perhaps the flowers are a symbol of those scenes.\nThe title of the piece is ?see/saw.? It?s something that probably everyone has played with at least once during their childhood. The word is combination of past and present tense gives rise to a variety of images. What was it that we saw as it creaked repeatedly carrying you up and down? And who was sitting at the other end? If one were to compare it to a seesaw\, depending on how high or low\, heavy or light\, and the speed\, people come to learn of various things\, etch them into their memory\, and become subjective about their life and death.\nIf one were on a seesaw\, can you imagine who?s on the other end? Is it you\, or someone else? The moment a person offers a flower\, he senses the distance to those who passed away\, up till that point\, in the future\, and as of that moment. At the same time with a premonition of their own death\, think about how they can how to view their life and death subjectively.\nThis piece is about memories but it?s a compilation of various people?s memory fragments.\nSee? and ?saw\,? and the scenery in between.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type="image_grid" images="7426\,7427" css=".vc_custom_1655801226488{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}"][vc_column_text]\nCOMPANY PROFILE\n \nNibroll\nhttp://www.nibroll.com/\nEstablished in 1997\, Nibroll is a dance company led by choreographer Mikuni Yanaihara.
