Wǔ Fēnzhōng explores the potential of untrained body, cross cultural language and gesture, and perception and expectation about time.​Commissioned by ICU Modern Dance Society, Shinohara worked with 12 dancers (with little traditional training) to create this 30-minute-long piece with repetitive gestures, time control by cell phone, immersive experience with audience facing each other, and some texts read in Japanese and Mandarin.
