躍然紙上的異想世界Ｘ何曉玫 Dancing in the paper world 【NTCH togo】

第19屆國家文藝獎得主何曉玫
被譽為創造超現實想像高手

「紙就是那麼好看啊!」
「就是這麼簡單的紙 都有它自己很不一樣的一個紀錄
它可能被摺過 揉過 畫過 某種程度對我來說好像是人」

她把紙變成舞台
她感受生活攤在她眼前
所有柔軟的 緊繃的 害怕的 脆弱的細節
用舞蹈呈現她的異想世界

生活中有太多感受
也許我們都沒有勇氣 沒有能力去表現
「可是舞蹈可以」 她堅定的說


The imageries on stage break the boundary between everyday reality and imagination: a piece of white, as big as the stage; two dancers, one on top of the other, form one body. Yet the uncanny look of these bodies in combination evokes the familiar feeling of self-confusion. Winner of the 19th National Awards for arts, Ho, Hsiao-Mei’s works capture the traces of our lives with dancers' bodies, imagination, silence and explosion. See how the choreographer develops her stage imagination in this video.
