400 年以上の歴史がある奇祭「鳥追い祭り」
太鼓の音で田畑を荒らす鳥や獣を追い払い、五穀豊穣・町内厄除・家内安全を願う。
自分の音を追い求めながら、世代を越えて太鼓が叩かれ文化が繋がっていく。
自分の音を求めながら受け継がれる鳥追い太鼓とタップダンスに通じる物を感じ、今回の作品では文化の継承と共に世代を越えて繋がる音探しを表現する。
The “Torioi Matsuri” is a strange festival with a history of more than 400 years. The sound of drums drives away birds and beasts that destroy the fields, praying for a good harvest, protection from bad luck in the town, and the safety of the family.
While pursuing their own sound, Taiko drums are played from generation to generation, connecting cultures. I felt something
similar between tap dance and the Torioi Taiko, which is passed down through the generations while seeking one’s own sound.
This work expresses the search for sounds that transcend generations as well as the passing down of culture.
