Black Hole & Paper Couple
Black Hole
Black holes, which can’t be observed directly, have endless gravity. This work is unpretentious and hits your senses. When you appreciate this work, it is like approaching a black hole and being carried into another world by the attraction of that powerful energy.
Black Hole is the work of CHANG Chien-Ming, a well-known choreographer and dancer. As one of the senior dancers of famous Hofesh Shechter Company and Rehearsal Director of the Shechter II, CHANG Chien-Ming participated in the creation and performance of a series of works of the company. In his work Black Hole, he combines Chinese and western culture, years of experience in Europe and his thinking.
Paper Couple
Paper Couple is intended to explore the communication between people and reshape the meaning and expression of physical behavior to us. While the choreographer and dancers are creating, they are also deconstructing the creation, truthfully recording and reflecting the sensitive and subtle barriers between people in the process of contact, communication and interchange, and discussing the relevant metaphors of being and non-being.
