Between Intervals

Miho Ryu

LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES SUMMER/FALL 2026: OUTSIGHT

~Attuning space through embodied sound~

Trusting oneself and standing fully in the certainty of an embodied presence. Through the senses, the world appears as a reflection of the self, inviting a continuous act of attunement. Listening to the echoes that return through the body, absorbing them, and responding by tuning the world once again. This work explores the beauty that emerges in the intervals between inner and outer landscapes, between action and response, sound and silence. Through vibration, rhythm, and the resonance of skin, it celebrates the ever-shifting relationship between body, space, and perception.

Choreography and Concept by Miho Ryu, Performance by Kotomi Aso

Choreography and Concept by Miho Ryu, Performance by Kotomi Aso

Miho Ryu is a New York based dancer, choreographer, teaching artist, originally from Tokyo,
Japan. She has created and performed over 100 works across Asia, Europe, and the United
States. Since returning to New York in 2024, her work has been presented at The 92nd Street Y, Peridance Presents, WestFest, Dixon Place, Arts On Site, Chez Bushwick, BAX, and international festivals including Asia Tri Jogja in Indonesia. She is a faculty member at Peridance Center, Ballet Hispánico School, and Steps on Broadway. Currently undergoing breast cancer treatment, she continues to expand her artistic practice through performance, choreography, and curatorial work.

Kotomi Aso is a Japanese movement artist based in New York. Originally from Kanagawa,
Japan, she began dancing at the age of three. Her practice grows from a deep relationship with nature and is shaped by experiences in outdoor education, social welfare, and community-based work. Through movement, she explores a living dialogue between body, nature, and space.

For 25 years, NYRP has invested in and stewarded parks and gardens throughout the city’s five boroughs to strengthen communities, promote food sovereignty, and counter environmental and social injustice. Effectively carrying out our mission requires collaboration, synergy, and understanding of the communities we serve on many different levels. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are embedded into our core identity and we deeply value the unique perspectives, knowledge, and resources that each member of our team and extended community brings to NYRP.
