Nahum is an artist from Mexico who is currently based in Berlin. His method crosses many fields ranging from space technology and illusion to hypnotism and music. He also founded KOSMICA, a space agency that explores the ever- imminent “cultural policies of outer space.” His practice pulls from a unique perspective connecting the humanities and arts with outer space and society.
Commissioned by Theater Commons Tokyo, he presents a two-part performance. In the first half, he uses hypnosis to lead the audience to a “future world” that they may one day inhabit. In the second, he gives a lecture-performance to navigate through a selection of his artworks and collaborations with space organizations including ISU, ESA, NASA and SpaceX. This endeavor reaches deep inside our perception and spiritual experience, traveling between reality and fantasy to transform our worldviews.
