Abstract

This study aims to discuss how naked body represented in Eiko & Koma’s video dances. Firstly, how they think of naked [or nude] body was discussed. Secondly, the characteristics of their 5 videodances such as Bone Dream, Lament, Husk, Undertow and Breath in which they performed in naked were analyzed in terms of time, space, body and camera editing/angles. From the dance analysis, the continuity of time and space was cleared and also, it was distinct that naked body was partly cut and became abstraction in relation to camera editing/angles. These characteristics reflected the concept of naked body which they regarded naked body should not be “sexual” but “sensual,”and their view of human and nature underlying the concept. For Eiko & Koma, naked body is a landscape, and it is a vital tool to represent“ the nakedness of nature.”
