Experimental dancer Min Tanaka will perform 'Locus Focus', an improvised dance presentation that returns the process of dance to nature in the place where the performance takes place; interacting with the surrounding environment to challenge modern conventions of dance and its role in contemporary society.

This performance is part of the on-going exhibition 'Inter-Resonance: Inter-Organics, Japanese Performance and Sound Art' at Sharjah Art Foundation. The exhibition is the second iteration of Sharjapan, a four-year-long collaboration with curator Yuko Hasegawa, which this year focuses on performances and sound-based installations exploring interactions between nature, technology and human life.
