Gotal Bournier
Gotal Bournier is a French electronic musician living between Tahiti and Tokyo. Between 2012 and 2017 he released four albums in Japan with the band Lo-shi. Since 2018 he has been based on the island of Raʻiātea, working on solo recordings and various live collaborative projects. His current solo project is a playful and wryly nostalgic live soundtrack to a video collage of Cold War Era science fiction films using the spectral, alien tones of twin modular synthesisers.
Misako Kikuchi
After studying classical ballet at an early age, Tokyo-born dancer Misako Kikuchi went on to explore modern ballet, contemporary dance, street dance and flamenco, while refining her own improvisational approach. Following her inclination towards variegated, often experimental forms of music, she developed a very personal style that eludes any easy categorisation, playing unaffectedly on contrasts and counterpoints. Her performances create uncontrived moments of beauty that make you feel that being alive is not irreconcilable with being free. In 2018, she moved to French Polynesia and started the contemporary dance company Kuhdoh. She will perform a solo act with video projections by visual artist Akiko Nakayama and music by Gotal Bournier, a fragment of her show L'éternel retour with company Kuhdoh in Raiatea.
