About the Event 关于活动
Could you make it home without a mobile phone?
Uncle Pan, aged 72, has a wish to live a long life, so he tries his best to avoid exposure to air conditioning, never stays up late, and eats a steamed boiled egg every day. Yet he has been smoking for 53 years.
Is “losing fat” the same as “losing weight?” What about exercise and physical training? Are they the same?
If I have to cultivate a new habit while breaking an old one over the next 22 days, what will these two habits be?
The words “I will not give up!” is what I say to myself when I am upset or desperate, or I don’t want to give in to reality even if it is challenging or brutal. When does your “I will not give up” come out of your tongue?
Nunu Kong has invited her friend Jess Chiayi Seetoo and workshop participants to join this round table discussion, which is intended to interpret, question and reflect on the theme “Bodies” from multiple perspectives based on personalized and hands-on experiences of life in the kaleidoscope-like society.
要是没了手机,你今晚还回得了家吗?
72岁的潘老伯一直想要长寿,他坚决不吹空调和晚睡,每天吃一颗水波蛋,烟龄53年。
“减肥” 和“减重” 到底是不是一个概念?那“锻炼”和“训练”呢?
如果我在下一个22天中要引进一个新习惯,同时去掉一个旧习惯,它们分别会是什么?
“我是有性格的!”我胸闷郁闷不甘心不服输,或火烧眉毛束手无策时就会在心里面跟自己喊这一句。你的性格通常会在什么情况下上演?
此次圆桌讨论会,Nunu Kong邀请好友司徒嘉怡及数位工作坊参与者,借当下社会生活百态中作为个体的(生命)经验对”身体“这一命题进行多维度的读解,质疑,回应及反思。
About the Speaker 关于讲者
Working as a choreographer, performing artist and an independent producer, Nunu Kong develops through her work a characteristic expression playing with time and space in poetic and illusionary dimensions in both visual and dramaturgic levels with a particular sense of humor instinctively blended into her choreography. Her recent projects include Trumpet Upside Down Dancing in Air - a series of endurance performance actions where she tests her body limitations and reassesses the physics of sound by attempting to play a trumpet while suspending herself upside-down from significant height.
Nunu Kong graduated from Beijing Dance Academy. She began her choreographic career in Shanghai as one of the founders of the “Zuhe Niao” collective, which she co-founded in 2005. Following their first award wining piece Tongue’s Memory of Home at Theaterspektakel Festival in Zurich in 2006, in 2007 she established her own independent dance project “BrandNuDance” which has become one of China’s most innovative experimental performing arts exchange platforms. Promoting experimental dance as a new and vital medium in contemporary art, she has produced numerous international dance productions, commissions, workshops, lectures and presents Chinese independent performing artist’s work beyond the underground.
Jess Chiayi Seetoo is a researcher and creator of performance arts. She obtained her PhD in performance study from University of California, Berkeley. She is a member of board of directors of the Performance Studies international(PSi) and a lecturer at Shanghai Theatre Academy. Her study and works cover a wide range of areas including Tanztheater, physical theatre, documentary theater, impromptu dance, relationships between dance and human body, and (new) media. She has extensive experience of exploring the connection between linguistic signs and art performances. Her creative works and performances, along with public education activities organized by her in collaboration with museums in Shanghai, give a glimpse of her repeated efforts to pursue interdisciplinary creation and to define the relationship between environment and humanity. Her research papers are published in P[art]icipatory Urbanisms, Performing Arts Review, TDR: The Drama Review, and The Routledge Companion to Butoh Performance.
吴艳丹是一位独立编舞家,制作人及表演艺术家。她的作品幽默、倔强,无论从视觉纬度或是从剧作层面,都微妙地显现出与时空和错觉交织玩耍的诗意性。她的最新作品包括《倒置于空中的喇叭》(一系列行为表演),她将自己倒置于不同高度的特定环境并试图把一把小号吹响,以测试她身体的极限和对声音物理的重新评估。
吴艳丹毕业于北京舞蹈学院。2006年与上海数位多领域艺术家成立“组合嬲”艺术家联盟,继首个合作作品《舌头对家园的记忆》于瑞士Theater Spektakel艺术节获头等赞助奖项之后,她在2007年创建了自己的“不乱扭独立制作”项目,作为中国舞蹈界少有的实验性表演交流平台之一,她制作并策划了一系列高质量且别具一格地舞蹈专场发布,工作坊及演讲,并推广本土其它优秀的独立表演艺术家在国际艺术节中的展示交流。
