Masks are important in the traditional Japanese dance discipline. With the change of slight angle of the mask, emotional, seasons and magic can be depicted. I feel we used these masks in a very subtle but sensitive way. We looked at the moon, saw the cloudberries growing along the path, sat to look ahead, etc.
We were magical characters like in Miyazakis "Spirited Away". We transformed from Noh-like elegance to ancient comedians like in Mibu Kyogen.
Thankyou for your masks!
