Works
Sasaki creates expressions that suit the Japanese body and spirit based on corporal and realism mime. He makes works that draw on Japan’s lyrical folk traditions which keenly observe the beauty of the changing seasons, as well as more contemporary portraits, such as the Tokyo “salary man”. Sasaki’s performances are based on a highly crafted and masterful sense of emotional expression, gravity, tension and flexibility, breathing, the sense of space, rhythm, balance, timing, walking and a variety of characters.

Famous quotes containing the word works:
“In the works of man, everything is as poor as its author; vision is confined, means are limited, scope is restricted, movements are labored, and results are humdrum.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
“The whole idea of image is so confused. On the one hand, Madison Avenue is worried about the image of the players in a tennis tour. On the other hand, sports events are often sponsored by the makers of junk food, beer, and cigarettes. What’s the message when an athlete who works at keeping her body fit is sponsored by a sugar-filled snack that does more harm than good?”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
“Separatism of any kind promotes marginalization of those unwilling to grapple with the whole body of knowledge and creative works available to others. This is true of black students who do not want to read works by white writers, of female students of any race who do not want to read books by men, and of white students who only want to read works by white writers.”
—bell hooks (b. 1955)
