Eaton HK

4 shorts of compelling imaginations of queer and femme artists, who use their craft to rethink ways of being and relationship with community

Eaton HK, Kino

“Stillness is an impossibility, these ripples on their skin.” If speaking is a form of movement, the body in motion is a portal that can be used to access infinite worlds beyond our own—of signs, meanings and identities—filling in the vast gaps where words fail. At the latest edition of Eaton HK’s annual Movement Festival, NOWNESS ASIA offers a selection of three short films celebrating performers who use their craft to rethink ways of being, speaking, and relationships with communities. In particular, the programme highlights the compelling imaginations of queer and femme artists as they navigate emotions and ambitions and perform new rituals, moving towards a future of their choosing. The curation includes short documentaries, narrative fictions, performance pieces and experimental video art works. 「靜止是不可能的，這些波紋在他們的皮膚上。」 如果說話是一種動作形式，那麼運動中的身體就是一個門戶，用來進入我們自己之外的無限世界——符號、意義和身份——填補了言語無法表達的巨大空白。今屆舞動節，NOWNESS ASIA 精選了3部短片，頌揚表演者運用自己的技藝，重新思考存在方式、說話方式以及與社區的關係。 該節目包括紀錄短片、虛構敘事、表演作品和實驗錄像藝術作品，特別聚焦酷兒和女性藝術家，展示他們駕馭情感和野心、表演新儀式、邁向自己選擇的未來時所創作出令人信服的想像。 Screening titles 放映片目:FXCKERY, Adrundati Thandur, Australia 澳洲, 2024  Private View: Joshua Serafin, Kitty Yeung 楊適榕, Philippines 菲律賓, 2024  Marungka Tjalatjunu (Dipped in black), Derik Lynch &amp; Matthew Thorne, Australia 澳洲, 2023  Julieta, Blaze Gonzalez, the U.S.A. 美國 (2024) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Movement Festival 舞動節 2024 Speaking From Afar 來自遠方的話語 Presented by Eaton HK, Movement Festival was first initiated in 2018 and has hosted two editions in 2019 and 2022. Movement Festival brings performance art to a mixed audience: from performance enthusiasts to passersby, as well as hotel clients, dining guests, and hotel staff. Brought together in the same space either by chance or by their own will, audiences will experience curated movement activations in unusual spaces. Site-specificity lies at the core of the festival. With no stage, performers, audience members and anonymous passersby all share the same space. The constraints of the hotel space require artists to work around the blurred lines between the audience and the artists; performers may decide to attract the crowd’s attention or disappear into their surroundings to manipulate the space between performance and “real life”. 由香港逸東酒店主辦的「舞動節」於2018年首次發起，並於2019年和2022年舉辦了兩屆。 無論是出於偶然還是出於自願，表演愛好者、酒店房客、用餐客人和酒店員工等不同類型觀眾聚首一堂，在不尋常的空間中體驗精心策劃的舞動表演。場域特定性是舞動節的核心，表演沒有舞台，表演者、觀眾和路人均共享同一個空間。酒店空間的限制要求藝術家必須繞過觀眾和藝術家之間模糊的界線；表演者可能會決定吸引人群的注意力，或消失在周圍的環境中，以操縱表演和「現實生活」之間的距離。
