- **Event Description**: Performed by Cass Tunick &amp; Shinichi Iova-Koga with Shahzad Ismaily.About this EventA highly physical realm of surreal yet utterly immediate worlds. Humor and struggle combine to reveal human experience through relationship and archetypal images. Cohesive, delicate, unpredictable.Cass Tunick is a performer, teacher, dancer, and writer. A Senior Teacher of Ruth Zaporah's Action Theater Improvisation, she performs solo and collaborative improvisations and creates original physical theater work, primarily presenting in New York, Boston, and Estonia. She has devoted herself to the practice and development of improvisation for the last 40 years, alongside the embodied structures of Qi Gong, dance, and poetry. Cass first worked with InkBoat in the late 90's and since then she and Shinichi have performed duets in venues across the globe. She holds an MFA in Poetics, has published several chapbooks and has a new manuscript coming out in 2027.Shinichi Iova-Koga serves as the Artistic Director of the dance theater company inkBoat, founded by Iova-Koga in 1998. He has toured North America, Europe, South Korea and Japan, often collaborating with local artists in museums, theaters, studios and site-specific locations.As a performer, Iova-Koga’s 35 year history with Butoh lurks within his presence, while his 26 years of commitment to the art of improvisation and Ruth Zaporah’s Action Theater unearth actions not beholden to a particular tradition. A lifetime in the martial arts and his deep investigation into the Daoist internal arts deeply inform his concepts of body, energy and motion. As a director, he primarily works with scores that pit meticulous structure with vibrant agency.inkBoat and Iova-Koga have been honored by numerous awards and grants, including 6 Bay Area “Izzie” awards and grants from NEA, MAP fund, New England Foundation for the Arts, California Arts Council, Rainin Foundation, Creative Work Fund, and Gerbode Foundation.
