Genre

Dance

The Chariot, one of the tarot cards, represents destiny, transformation and selflessness, and is often drawn with a young prince, but, rarely, has a picture of Cibeles (mother goddess) on a cart drawn by two lions. Deciphering the picture of mother goddess, a solo butoh work is made and presented at a studio where the work is created and regarded as a theatre venue.
