Auction

In support of NIPPON KOBO

Selected works from the live performance at Nippon Kobo Vol.2 — Ma (間): The Space Between All Things, held at the Gray Area Grand Theater in San Francisco on November 2nd, are available on an online silent auction in support of Nippon Kobo. 7 artworks in total were written live accompanied by live chamber music, performing "Ryoanji" by John Cage and a word-premier of Hiroya Miura's original composition for the collaboration "Awai -interstice-."

As one of the artists in this unfolding tapestry, I cherished every moment of creating together—each gesture, each sound, each shared breath. Once again, I was deeply moved by the Bay Area’s generous embrace of Japanese contemporary culture and music, and by Haruka Fujii’s unwavering devotion to shaping Nippon Kobo: a haven, a heartbeat, a community for contemporary Japanese art and music.

I feel called to give back however I can—to help sustain these luminous efforts and the beautiful space they create in the world. You're warmly invited to participate in our auction in support of the community. We hope you can join us making a meaningful impact.
