Project Introduction
Miko Kuro’s Midnight Tea is a conceptual art project created by poet and interdisciplinary artist, Natasha Marin. Since the project’s inception in 2008, Midnight Teas have been held in Greece, France, Canada, and the United States. This is the first time the Midnight Tea has taken place outside of the Western Hemisphere (North America and Europe). Mandarin translations of Marin’s poetry published by Yunnan University Press will be incorporated into this event. Although over 25 have taken place, each Midnight Tea is unique because of the guests who participate in creating this experimental, art ritual. Interested participants may find out more about the project online at www.mikokuro.com or www.afurocreative.com.
