Negotiating Spaces

Dancers:
Raymond LIU (HK), Willa CHAN (HK), Joyce MA (HK), Joanne WONG (HK)

Description:
People from all over the world meet in Hong Kong. When one arrives, there are no set rules of agreement. Patterns and identities are newly formed. Temporary coalitions are made depending on shared understandings or clash of conflicts. Slowly, structures are revealed and rules are seen. We find allies and form temporary communities in everyday projects formed by our choices. Alone or with someone, we set out possibilities of conquering limited space. A strategic place to build our self-portrays. An investigation on what makes us move and where it could lead us.
