One & Only? 和合而生

60-minute immersive dance and installation performance

Myth and memory meet motion in this multidisciplinary work by Co-tempORaRY Dance - a collective of Chinese diaspora artists led by Jiawen Feng.

Drawing on The Classic of Mountains and Seas 《山海经》and the holistic philosophy of Zhuangzi, four dancers blend Chinese classical and contemporary movement amid an installation of flowing colour and suspended time, accompanied by real-time motion-capture projection. Shifting hues and fluid forms create an environment where bodies, sound, and digital echoes merge.

Audiences are invited into a constantly shifting world—at once ancient and futuristic—that asks:

How might we exist not as individuals, but as a shared ecology?


Language: Non-verbal / English introduction
