In our final show in a series covering the Performing Arts Meeting in Yokohama 2020 (TPAM 2020), we highlight a Belgium-based performance company called fieldworks, which presented three shows at the event. We speak with founders Heine Avdal and Yukiko Shinozaki about their view of contemporary performance, and how they create works that are both site-specific yet are able to travel.
