Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions

Finally, the Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions 2019 will start from Feb 8!
I will show a new video installation.
Also I will be a part of a symposium at Feb 10 with an artist Hiroko Okada, a film director Natsuka Kusano and the festival director Keiko Okamura. Okamura-san described the symposium as a girls’ party. I could feel hidden but strong intention for the symposium only by women, so I am excited to be a part of it.
Also there will be my own artist talk at Feb 16.
The festival is admission free (which is amazing) and there are a lot of interesting programs.
Please please come and join! It will be until Feb 24.

Greetings for 2019

Happy new year!
I wish all of you had nice holiday time.
I saw two documentary films directed by Laura Poitras and they were incredibly awesome (Films are Citizenfour and Risk). I know it has been passed couple of years after these films were released but I really appreciate that I could see the films now.
In the end of December I was quite tired like as a low energy cordless vacuum cleaner, but I had been completely charged in holiday time.
I am sending you wishes that 2019 will be great for my friends!

P.S. I really want to see Laura’s film “My Country, My Country” but could not find any way to see it here in Japan. Umm. Does anyone have it…?

“A 6-Hour Long Conversation”

This is a 6-hour radio show in live by Maiko Jinushi (from Tokyo) and Mirna Bamieh (from Jerusalem/ Palestine). It will stream at 13:00-19:00, July 27, 2016.

――——————–
◾ A Statement by Mirna
————————-
A 6-hour long conversation: On personal and collective anxieties, preoccupations, aspirations, and more.

This year, Mirna started conducting different 6-hour durational performances, it started by a 6-hour auto-writing performance that was visible through live feed projection in a café in Marrakech, and now she will be having a conversation with me on the Radio live from Tokyo.

Over the past month, we met regularly, discussing lives that felt worlds apart at times, and one-step away at others. Our practices are inspired by storytelling, and that was our starting point in a personal and professional friendship.

In this performance we will be part of an unwritten script, that we’ll let play over us.
Join us and tune on: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/cMz6PXYbxBD

————————-
◾ A Statement by Maiko
――——————–

I and Mirna met in Tokyo last month. She saw my film, then she contacted me.
We met several times and talked various topics.
We were born and grown in far different situation.
After talking each other, we found both of us were interested in telling “personal tales” or “personal histories” on our artistic practices.

“Let’s talk everything in public.”

We decided to do this live performance with a motivation to make this long long conversation as a storytelling rather than an ordinary talk.

————————-
◾ Biography
――——————–
Mirna Bamieh is an artist from Jerusalem/ Palestine.
She obtained a B.A in Psychology from Birzeit University in Ramallah (2002-06). M.F.A. in Fine Arts at Bezalel Academy for Arts and Design in Jerusalem (2011-2013). Ashkal Alwan Home Works study program in Beirut (2013/14).
Her work attempts to understand and contemplate the ever-shifting politics, while equally questioning notions of land and geographies of in-between temporality. Recently, her work looks more at scenarios that take the language of the absurd and the ironical and uses them as tools for political commentary. In addition to that, she is working on developing works that create situational performances that use storytelling as a medium for creating a personal relationship between the participants and the artwork.
She is currently International creator resident at Tokyo Wonder Site.

―――
Maiko Jinushi is an artist from Tokyo.
Jinushi obtained MFA in Painting from Tama Art University, Tokyo in 2010. Jinushi’s work has evolved from drawings and novels on the theme of personal tales to the creation of a “new type of literature” that comprehensively combines elements including video, installations and performance. Recent solo exhibition is “A New Experience of Love” (HAGIWARA PROJECTS, Tokyo, 2016). Recent group exhibitions are “RETURN TO: TWS Creator-in-Residence 2015-2016” (TWS Hongo, Tokyo, 2016), “Unusualness Makes Sense” (Chiang Mai University Art Center, Chiang Mai, 2016), “Zero Gravity ” (Matadero Madrid, Madrid, 2015), “Fictive Communities Asia – Koganecho Bazaar 2014″ (Kanagawa, Japan, 2014).
