碧虚篇

灵渊篇

寒晶篇

Water at its purest form inspired ancient philosophers, from Chinese thinking of “Water is benefiting all things without competition”, to the Western idea of “water as the origin of all things”. 

The dance Be Water takes the words from the Book of Dao, expressing water as the highest virtue of life, through pure body movement.

The stagnancy of solid state, the fluidity of liquid state, the egnima of vapour state, formulate the conception of Be Water. The choreographer also sees them as different stages of life, filling the dance stage with moving image and imagery.
