Since 2020, the Littered Mvmnts project by Japanese-American artist Shoji Yamasaki has intrigued, amused, and fascinated millions of people. Through a series of viral videos, he transforms discarded waste into veritable dance partners, reproducing its wind-borne movements with his own body. A seemingly simple idea, but one that reveals a profound reflection on our daily, often unconscious, relationship with the objects we leave behind.
By placing trash at the heart of his choreography, Yamasaki diverts our gaze: what is usually ignored suddenly becomes living, captivating, almost poetic. Split-screen after split-screen, the creator stages an intimate relationship between humans and their refuse, without moralizing but with a subtlety that touches on ecology, artistic expression, and understated humor.
