Mirei

Mirei art Mirei is an artist that works with body movement, bodily sensation and improvisation to grasp a deeper understanding of what we call 'reality'.

Her work is performance based, blending together elements of dance, singing/vocalisation and playing sound objects. Costumes and props are also central to Mirei’s artistry, creating pieces that interact well with live performance and movement. Mirei collaborates regularly with artists from a range of backgrounds and disciplines, as well as leading workshops in movement and improvisation. Her most

recent workshop focuses on improvisation and proprioception, thereby holding space for participants to explore forgotten/unfound aspects of their reality, as well as interacting with others.

"Step into a captivating realm where the digital and the subconscious converge in "Membranes" (18-20 April, 2024) serves as a metaphorical exploration of the porous boundaries between the digital and physical worlds, inspired by the seminal work of renowned author Chi Ta-wei in his book "The Membranes”. This theme invites artists to delve into the intricate interplay between technology, humanity, and the environment, reflecting on the permeable barriers that define our digital existence.
Join us as our gallery space transforms into a dreamscape where reality and imagination intertwine. From interactive installations to evocative generative art, each piece challenges perceptions and invites contemplation on the evolving relationship between humanity and technology. Experience the fusion of analogue nostalgia and digital innovation as you engage with artworks that blur the boundaries between the tangible and the virtual. Discover vibrant visuals and thought-provoking concepts that spark conversations about the nature of consciousness in the digital age."

I will be performing trumpet, voice and maybe body movements at the event on 23rd July to mark the 80th birthday of Eddie Prevost, who has run improvisation workshops in London for many years.
In prior to that, I interviewed him. I got some great answers and I'm really glad I did this interview.

I have joined Sandro Masai - Art's performance in Denmark.

DANCE FOR OSHUN #1 - Ritualistic Action Painting by Sandro Masai.
Guest performers: Mirei (JP) and Jens Bugay-Hougaard - Art (DK)
Location: Musikkens Hus Aalborg, 2
Date: 4.02.2022
Photos: Niels Fabæk
DANCE FOR OSHUN #1 is a multimedia performance art by Sandro Masai (BR) and the guest performers, Mirei (JP) and Jens Bugay-Hougaard (DK). It is an action-painting performance that produces music, dance, painting, video and photographs. The painting is dedicated to the orisha Oshun, the Afro-Yoruban goddess of the rivers and waterfalls. She represents feminine power, fertility, prosperity and beauty. She is associated with the colours gold and yellow.
In the Yoruban tradition we sing and dance to worship the gods. The Yoruban mythology traveled to the Americas with the African diaspora and is very alive today in several countries. Each Yoruban god is worshiped in rituals with a certain rhythm, dance and colour.

I have led a small online workshop about body movement and improvisation in Japanese today.
What I realised is that it is important to make a small break for chat after one or two exercise. In a real workshop people have a space to reflect and chat about exercise but there is no such space online.
Too frequent chat is also not good as well since it reduces chance for people to communicate with own body and sensation.
