Overview
A solo performance on 'nudity, immobility and verticality', 'Half-Demon (Nama-nari)' was first performed in 1985 and became a major turning point for Iwana Masaki. Wanting to bring out his inner femininity, he performed for the first time in a European dress. That same year, Iwana began calling his own works 'butoh'. Nama-nari is the Noh mask of a woman with slight protruding horns, before she becomes a hannya [female demon].
