Unlock Body Lab: Open Research Week 2022

Last year, the first Open Research Week based on the theme “Hybridity, Convergence and Training of Contemporary Performance-making”. On our quest examining deep into the training systems developed among different performing art forms, schools and disciplines, traces to their own differences and similarities on aesthetic indications were located. Understanding these different techniques, trainings and habits, we were also exploring the possibilities for different practices to reference, intersect, transform or expand mutually.
This year, under the theme of “Brain Stretching, Eye Opening, Body Moving”, we extend our discussion towards ways and methods to art-creating in contemporary performing art. Curated a series of workshops, showings, lecture and screenings, we aim to connect artists from different disciplines and mediums, thus open up the creative process and space for public to witness and explore in.
With the intention to nurture co-learning, experiment and exchange, we come from a ground to capture the ephemeral, easily forgotten, compromised, washed away queries and curiosities during creative processes; to name those rarely named but essential processes, to put importance to trivial parts that are not presented in a work but weigh as equal. Eventually, we meant to ask the fundamental question on the nature of creation, beyond a production-oriented context, but its multi-layered relationship with diurnal life.

Date: 4-16 Jan 2022
