binbinFactory is an interdisciplinary company working across dance, performance, and visual art, directed by Satoshi Haga and co-directed by Rie Fukuzawa. Based in New York, the company presents performances in Japan and across Europe, creating works that explore storytelling through the body. Movement is integrated with objects, handcrafted materials, and visual elements to form immersive stage environments.
Drawing from influences such as mime, Tai Chi, Balinese dance, Japanese traditional and contemporary theater, and Western contemporary dance, binbinFactory develops a physical language that moves fluidly across cultures and disciplines. Their work reflects on memory, time, and the evolving relationship between humans and their environment.
Through performances in New York, Japan, and Europe, binbinFactory invites audiences into spaces of quiet observation and shared reflection, where movement and visual form coexist beyond words.
binbinFactory challenges itself to explore imaginary stories through movement, with or without props, creating a fancy and playful world of dance.
“Thank you thank you and thank you to everyone who made this residency (Black Artist Space to Create) possible. These past two weeks have been a blessing! Not only have I been able to deepen my own personal/artistic practices, I was given the space to connect with people that I love! I was given space to reflect on love, and to prepare for what this next year (2021) will bring! Shout out to New Dance Alliance, Modern Accord Depot and Angie Pittman for the time, the space, and opportunity! I am forever grateful! It felt like a good meal, with dessert!”
