老化的美在於臉的蛻變,每一條皺紋都是一個等待講述的故事。
中爪哇的 Agung 具四十多年宮廷及面具的習舞經驗,同時一直從其當代與傳統身體感知智慧之間尋求表演上的突破。是次短演,他跟本地資深舞踏家莫穎詩一起,以隱藏著大地天然能量的人工雕塑爪哇面具為介,送上一支雙人舞。
兩個東靈舞魂合體,兩個舞種皆具備一定的動物性、靈性演繹及內在觀照,隨傳統唱頌、扭曲流動及此呼彼吸間,且看最後會是如何的一場對歲月、對生命致敬的「變臉」舞儀。
The beauty of aging lies in the transformation of the face, with every wrinkle telling a story waiting to be shared.
Agung, a master from Central Java with over 40 years of experience in court and mask dance, has been continuously exploring breakthroughs in performance by bridging contemporary and traditional ideas of body awareness. In this short performance, he collaborates with seasoned Hong Kong butoh artist Vinci Mok, presenting a duet with Javanese masks—sculpted artifacts imbued with the natural energy of the earth.
Two Eastern dance spirits unite. Both dance forms embody a sense of animalistic movement, spiritual expression, and introspective awareness. Accompanied by traditional chanting, distorted flows, and synchronized breaths, witness how this performance becomes a transformative ritual—an homage to time and life through the art of "changing faces."
