消亡中的餘留者

Against the time, the pendulum swings as we pace ourselves into the river of life's emptiness, occasionally cursing, sniggering, reveling, but most of the time, we simply wander aimlessly or reincarnate unconsciously, like the tears that disappear unseen as we stand weeping in the pouring rain. In contrast to memory, which is active, forgetting is passive, which means that one can opt to remember something, but not to forget it. Even if we can choose to pass on our memories, it is inevitable that as time passes, some things will be forgotten, some will become unfamiliar, and others will lose their sense of meaning, like bricks and tiles flaking off and gradually falling away.

It's all about using the aspect of “time” to trigger the co-experience between audience. In addition, dance performance is a transcultural and language material. By combing my background with contemporary dance, street dance, performance art, drama, pantomime, and so on, I visualize the imagination of time into a dance piece, which reflect the communion of cultural diversities in Taiwan.

The dominoes used in the piece are my physical imagination of “time.” If one can be a carrier, then we hold time in our hands, building and destroying it, slowly arranging the trajectory of our own lives.
