Butographie
"Butoh is an enigma, an ever-evolving mystery. Violent or peaceful, slow or manic, painfully intimate or grandly spectacular, freely improvised or choreographed in stylized gestures, Butoh seems to fly away from itself, resisting definition or explanation, yet profoundly transforming those who encounter it."
I created a typography inspired by Butoh, a form of Japanese dance theatre whose main features are the naked body, a white make-up, the succession of extremely slow movements and violent convulsion, and facial expressions of traditional japanese theatre.
I tried to build a dialogue between the static, vectorial typography and the blurred images, recreating a parallel with life/death question.
