Clouds from a Crumbling Giant lingers in the spaces of time between human incarnations, the broken and boundless bodies. Within the waiting room of the afterlife, consciousness folds in upon itself as a group of wandering souls re-enact their corporeal memories.
inkBoat, founded in 1998, continually invites in the collaborative voices of artists who meet in uncertain territories. The company brings together disparate backgrounds in Noh Theater, Corporeal Mime, Butoh Dance, Physical Theater, and unconventional orchestrations involving acoustic instruments, sound design and nostalgic wonderment.
Shinichi Iova-Koga directs this rumination on being and non-being in collaboration with Dana Iova-Koga, Jubilith Moore, Elke Luyten, Cass Tunick, Dan Cantrell, Adria Otte and Shahzad Ismaily.
This showing is part of a development process that will manifest as a complete work entitled Embers and Clouds in San Francisco this April 30 - May 3, 2026.
