Repetitive shifts of paths, occasional collisions,
The bodies here are flickering.
Sounds pressing upon me, rewriting me with remnants and gentleness,
Yet, unaware of their origin and destination.
"Don't ask me, I am also perplexed."
"Don't ask me, I am also perplexed.”
"Don't ask me, I am also perplexed.”
As if it is my calmest cry to the world,
The response comes like a clear mirror, but it cannot stop the emotions embraced within.
There is no one to confide in,
Thinking of descending into the next crevice.
When repeated “utterances” become a form of prayer, the ceaseless cycle tears open a fissure—passing away, yet also ascending.
The turmoil of body and mind falls into the daily inertia of loss of control and tension, yet through the relentless strike of each forceful beat, the surface tautness gradually loosens, allowing a renewed dialectic in confrontation with the self. This work seeks to respond to the fractured state of self-identity, transforming bodily oppression and the disorientation of direction into an emotional text, translated through dance, sound, and installations. Across different stages of repetition, it opens fissures for contemplation and re-interpretation, extending the inquiry into the unfinished, unending proposition of self-recognition.
重複位移的路徑,偶發的碰撞,
這裡的身體閃爍。
聲音壓著我殘烈又溫和地複寫,
卻無從知道它從哪裡來,往哪裡去。
「不要問我,我也很疑惑。」
「不要問我,我也很疑惑。」
「不要問我,我也很疑惑。」
彷彿是我對世界拋出最平靜的吶喊,
回應如一面明鏡,
卻止不了身上攬下的有情水。
話我無人可託,
想著墮入下一次的裂口。
當重複的「話語」 成為一種禱詞,往復相承的運轉撕開一道裂口,逝,也是昇。
身心的混亂陷入日復一日的慣性失控與緊繃,卻也在一次又一次的強烈重拍敲擊下,逐漸鬆動表層張力,在與自我的對峙間,得以再次辯證。此作品試圖回應自我認同斷裂所帶來的精神狀態,將身體感受到的壓迫與方向迷失,轉化為舞蹈、聲音與物件的表現語彙。在重複進程的不同階段中,開啟「觀」與再詮釋的縫隙,進而延展對未完成的自我認知課題的探問。
