BMoA: From Ethnographic Craftsmanship Research to Choreographic Language
《Beyond Moving with Artisans》（BMoA） 於2018年發起，旨在探索馬來西亞瀕臨消失的傳統工藝中所蘊含的身體知識，並將工匠的手勢與勞作動作轉化為當代舞蹈。透過跨領域合作，該計畫在文化遺產與身體動作之間建立連結，開啟關於記憶、生態與永續性的全新對話。
作為一名編舞家，我將自己的角色視為一座橋樑，透過身體檔案的保存與轉化，在過去與現在之間建立連結，並在表演中重新想像傳統實踐。我的創作融合動作、文化保存與行動實踐，探索不斷演變的記憶如何培養同理心與集體關懷。
在這次講座示範中，我將呈現 《BMoA：藤編工藝 × 當代舞蹈》，並分享演出片段，以說明其創作過程。透過追溯 BMoA 的發展脈絡，我將展示編舞如何成為一種「活的檔案」，把工藝技術轉化為具身敘事，並與我們社群的社會與文化脈絡產生連結。
Initiated in 2018, Beyond Moving with Artisans (BMoA) explores the embodied knowledge of endangered Malaysian crafts, transforming artisans’ gestures into contemporary dance. Through interdisciplinary collaborations, the project bridges cultural heritage with movement, fostering new dialogues on memory, ecology, and sustainability.
As a choreographer, I see my role as a bridge connecting past and present through body archiving and reimagining traditional practices in performance. My work integrates movement, cultural preservation, and activism, exploring how evolving memories cultivate empathy and collective care.
For this lecture demonstration, I will present BMoA:Rattan Weaving x Contemporary Dance, sharing excerpts from the performance to illustrate the creative process. By tracing the evolution of BMoA, I will highlight how choreography can serve as a living archive, translating craftsmanship into embodied narratives that engage with the social and cultural fabric of our communities.
