Yannis Kyriakides’ new pieces for piano and electronics in a new project by Tomoko Mukaiyama WE ARE THE HOUSE which highlights the importance of learning to express oneself and being able to imagine, think and feel an alternative future. 

‘’My body is mine.” This seems an unquestionable sentence, a nearly too natural sense, which is often shaken in laws and social institutions. At the 10-day WE ARE THE HOUSE-Salon held in Kyoto in June 2025 with Dutch artists and activists, we had time to think about the right and possibility to self-determination of the body with various keywords such as “abortion”, “ME-TOO”, “queer”, “kitchen”, “patriarchy”, and “family.”  —Tomoko Mukaiyama

WE ARE THE HOUSE: Performance is a new work by Tomoko Mukaiyama, developed and produced based on WE ARE THE HOUSE: Salon, held in Kyoto and Amsterdam in spring 2025.
In addition to Mukaiyama herself, the cast includes the emerging actor and director Joost van Bommel, who plays the role of abortion activist Rebecca Gomperts. The lecture sections are being written under the direction of Yuri Yamada (founder of Zeitaku Bimbo). Following its world premiere in Kyoto, this work is scheduled to develop into a world tour.
