Threads of Drawing of Noble


ビアズレーの淀みの糸

Butoh-fu

Lines of drawings of noble ladies by Aubrey Beardsley first overlap each other and then become entangled. The lines become thicher, and they become soaking wet by sucking dampness in the air. Out of this, a horse’s neck appears. Many faces of the horse again start overlapping each other to form layers. This becomes solid in the end. This in turn becomes a man wearing a thin mask made of wood, who enters a forest. He is also made of the same wood that makes up the mask. He is blown once around by the wind, and the trees in the forest stare at him, which melts him down into form of a horse slowly sinking into a swamp. The horse then becomes a huge snail. The snail then becomes a ghost who is carrying a baby in his mouth. The ghost’s face becomes a heavy neck. He walks around without any particular destination. There is a huge fish in the air and he is staring at it. When a swallow flies underneath hair growing out of the ghost’s nose, he has suddenly been transformed into a moth on the floor. The moth becomes wet and then becomes a strange animal. the animal crawls around and exits.
