'Artist Rie Nakajima is known for arranging small devices in an installation-like manner, presenting the movement of each device as a "performance." This "performance" may be an attempt to highlight the interaction between humans and devices, as well as the states of response between devices and the space they inhabit, by minimizing human intervention.
This piece is a recording of Nakajima's performance in the courtyard of a castle, where she was invited to perform at a festival in France in 2016. As Nakajima activates the devices while moving freely throughout the space, the organic sharing of the space is evidenced by the audience's breathing, the rustling of trees in the wind, and other elements present, all interacting to give rise to this work.'
