ゆいぽーとでの滞在制作のオープンスタジオ終えました。
オープンスタジオで載せてた言葉をここに。

新潟での滞在で、街を、砂丘を、松林を、海辺を歩きました。
ツーンと冷える空気の中で、私は独りだと感じました。
それと同時に、心に静かな心地よさも感じました。
新潟のこの季節ならではの感覚なのかもしれません。
ザクザクと響く雪の足音、日本海から吹いてくる風の強さ、
霰が窓に当たる音。
石のようにじっと耳を澄ましてみると、新潟の色が身体に染み込んでいきました。
たくさんのアーケードのシャッターが閉まり、少し寂しさを感じさせる街並み。
広い海原で独り。
誰もいない道、一人で座る居間。
冬の新潟は、たくさんの「一人の時間」を感じさせてくれました。
それと同時に、ドアの向こうには情景、人、そして石とのたくさんの出会いがありました。
このオープンスタジオでは、滞在中に出会った人々や風景、石との関わりをもとに、映像、詩、石のオブジェを組み合わせた作品を展開しました。
忙しない現代社会の中で、
ケアや遊び、そしてやさしさのための空間をひらくことを心がけました。
それぞれの作品は、新潟の方々のご協力によって生まれました。心より感謝いたします。

During my residency in Niigata, I walked through the city, the sand dunes, the pine forest, and along the sea.

In the sharp winter air, I felt alone.
At the same time, there was a quiet comfort within me.
Perhaps this feeling belongs to Niigata in this season.

Snow crunching under my feet.
Wind blowing in from the Sea of Japan.
Hail tapping against the window.

Listening carefully, like a stone,
the colors of Niigata slowly entered my body.

Closed shutters along the arcades.
A wide, open sea.
An empty road.
A room where I sit alone.

Winter in Niigata offered many moments of solitude.
And yet, beyond each door, there were encounters —
with landscapes, with people, with stones.

In this open studio, I presented works combining video, poetry, and stone objects, born from these encounters.

In the midst of a restless world,
I wished to open a space for care, play, and tenderness.

With deep gratitude to everyone in Niigata who made this possible.

Tenderness of the Stones in Niigata, Japan

新潟滞在で、街や土地や地元の人と石の映像を作りたくて、マイベストフレンド. @tsumnder に撮影をお願いしましたー！
いつもながら、最高に褒めてくれて、腕のいいカメラマン。
今回は新潟の新津にあるスロウプハウス @slopehouse.akiha にもお邪魔させてもらいました〜！
すごく久しぶりの @aika.kka との再会、案内や地元の人とも繋げてくれて、さらにいろんな話もできてすごく嬉しかった。
泊まれる劇場スロウプハウス、すごく地元と繋がっていて、温かい場所で、美味しい(本当に本当に美味しい) ご飯。
とてもいいところでした。
興味ある人は絶対訪れて欲しい。

My best friend @tsumnder made beautiful photographs and video.

Thanks for @aika.kka , @slopehouse.akiha for guiding me, driving me, and connecting me with local people—and for the warm welcome to your beautiful AIR, @slopehouse.akiha

It’s super beautiful and nice AIR and if you want to work, creation or research with locals in Niigata, I recommend to contact with them.

新潟にゆいぽーとのAIRプログラムで自主滞在制作できております。
初めて日本での滞在制作、初めての新潟。
寒くてThe 日本海側の荒波な環境ですが、すごく雪景色が美しくてやっぱり日本の冬も好きだなーと感じます。
ベルギーで続けてるTenderness of the Stonesの継続リサーチで、日本の人達にとって内省、孤独とつながり、石、どんな出会いがあるかなと思って来ましたが、すごくたくさんの言葉や思想の交換、石作りを通して伝えられることなど、1人で今この地で向き合ってます。

新潟の街を歩いていると
至る所に石があり、散歩が楽しい。

石黒、私の名字はどうも新潟から来たらしいと発見。そしたら、確か祖父は新潟出身だったなぁと思い出した。
なにか縁があって、石に呼ばれてここに来た気がします。

ベルギーから持ってきた石たちは、
どうも新潟の地で旅に出たらしい。
またどこかでめぐりあえるかな。

来週オープンスタジオ形式でベルギーでの経過とここで少し発展させたことをシェアしたいなとおもいます。
近くにいらっしゃる、もしくは新潟行くよって人は是非私に石に会いに来てください〜！

I’m now in Niigata Japan for an artist in residency at @yuiport_jp
Surrounded by the Japanese ocean and its cold, rough weather, I find that the snow somehow makes me happy.
There is beautiful nature here, along with a nostalgic old town.

I am very grateful to be here and to share Tenderness of the Stones with people in Japan.
I also discovered that my family name originates from Niigata.

It feels as if the stones themselves called me to be here.

CANAPÉ’S FIRST BIRTHDAY WEEKEND
21 & 22/02 – ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT ART & PERFORMANCE

Kaori Ishiguro (she/her – @kaorishiguro) &
Alex Schuurbiers (she/her – @hetschuur)
Kaori Ishiguro (JP) is a dancer and performer based in Antwerp. She is currently dedicated to creating works across various media. Her practice lies within performance art, exploring the boundaries between self and others through bodily and sensory experience. Rather than direct audience interaction, she creates shared moments that invite presence, awareness and a sense of interconnectedness.

Alex Schuurbiers (NL/BE) is an audiovisual artist working predominantly with analogue media. Her practice focuses on trance-like, non-hierarchical narrative structures related to the subconscious, addressing themes such as heimat, maternal lineage, trauma and resilience. She researches memory and its representation in film-based works, as well as ecological developing methods and the effects of organic matter on celluloid.

Tenderness of the Stones is a poetic, immersive project exploring solitude as a means to reconnect with ourselves and others. Through silent encounters with stones—touch, gesture and presence—the work invites visitors into deep sensory listening and reflection.
The installation combines video, sound, sculpture, performance and workshops, offering a space of care, play and tenderness in a fast-moving world.

Martha Dewit (she/her – @martha_dewit) — performing 21/02
Martha Dewit is currently in her final year of the master’s program Danse et pratiques chorégraphiques at INSAS / La Cambre / Charleroi Danse. Moving between the roles of dramaturge, choreographer and dancer, she enjoys both supporting the projects of others and shaping her own work. In her personal practice, she searches for the tideline where improvisation and composition meet.

She will share a work in progress: a solo developed as part of her graduation project. Working with structured improvisation, each dance becomes both familiar and unknown.
