Three female choreographers explore the boundaries of the body, reshaping space and self through a uniquely feminine lens.
Infinite Extension features dance works by three young choreographers from Hong Kong and Guangzhou—Keung Hoi-ling, Paula Wong and Fu Binjing—offering an immersive contemporary dance theatre experience. Tai Kwun's F Hall is transformed into a personal space, prompting viewers to reflect on their bodies and spatial perception from various angles. The choreographers use movements to explore the multifaceted meaning of "space" through live performances, participatory presentations, and stage installations.
The choreographers revisit their histories and memories in dance, revealing the tension between individual and dance while re-examining technique, aesthetics, and self-composition. They summon desires and imagination through body-space interactions, navigating the boundaries between consciousness and movement systems.
Keung Hoi-ling's I Saw a Ping-Pong. I Crushed It. It Was an Egg. redefines the relationship between individual and system using language, imagery, and bodily movements. She traverses between analysis and stream of consciousness that intertwines thoughts with the body. Paula Wong's Come closer, go deeper! explores the female bodily experience and gaze through body postures, inviting the audience to feel the resulting pain, pleasure, tension, and ease with the postures’ flow and shift carrying the gaze of the audience. Fu Binjing's Neverland presents an imaginative realm, reflecting on standardised bodies using artificial materials and waste to connect the body with the external world while questioning beauty, standardization, and meaning.
Just like the pursuit of infinite outward extension in dance training, the choreographers connect their thoughts to the spaces within and outside the body, transcending the boundaries of the physical form and resonating in space.
