Big in Japan
The eclectic range of Japanese artists, performers and musicians coming to Australia to makes this one cultural exchange you’ll really want to attend.
Overview
If someone says something is big in another country, chances are it’s because the rest of the world doesn’t really care for it — like how Celine Dion is big in Vegas, or how Brazilians like making sugary avocado smoothies. But Australia loves Kirin as much as Japan loves Ksubi, because cool clothing and delicious beer are two things that don’t have geographical boundaries. Something we don’t consume quite so frequently is modern Japanese expressionism, but that’s what Kirin and Ksubi are aiming to change.
Cue the eclectic range of Japanese artists, performers and musicians coming to Australia to make this one cultural exchange you’ll really want to attend. Among them are Berlin-based Butoh dancer and choreographer Yuko Kaseki, indie rock duo and self proclaimed “masters of girl magic” Kiiiii!, electronic ‘Japanoise’ sound producer OVe-NaXx, and avant garde khoomei singer Fuyuki Yamakawa, who works with lightbulbs, yogic breath, antiquated medical equipment, modified musical instruments and the beat of his own heart.
This party looks set to be even crazier than the fact that everyone’s invited, so get your RSVP in early.
