Programme
Hong Kong choreographer Pewan Chow’s newly created duet, Law of Linkage, weaves through the memories, hopes, and blessings shared between people. Exploring an elusive sense of connection that seems at once present and absent, the work unfolds through complex emotions, evoking a poignant sense of beauty and solitude.
Norwegian choreographer Hege Haagenrud’s Meaning 3.0 marks her first collaboration with Hong Kong dancers. Known for incorporating recorded monologues and conversations into her works, Haagenrud uses these voices as a backdrop to inspire the dancers to explore variations in movement and expression, creating a subtle sense of distance and ambiguity.
