War. Requeim: interdisciplinary performance (dance, theatre, new media projection, music...)

Shang-Han & Sammy Chien (Chimerik) got invited by Vancouver based Choreographer Rob Kitsos to work as guest artists in an interdisciplinary performance in SFU Fei & Milton Wong Theatre (Vancouver, Canada). It has been a while since Shang-Han and I get to work together intensively on a dance performance. 

We're very happy to have this chance to push boundaries and try out some new experiments, as well as getting to work with some of the top choreographers and artists in town.

A collaboration between ecologists and dancers, EXPERIMENTS probes the connections between science and art to unveil the creativity, experimentation and intuition employed in both disciplines to understand the world around us. For three years, LINK Dance Artistic Director Gail Lotenberg researched this piece with a group of dancers and renowned ecologists, specializing in the study of non-verbal communication. A world of new ideas comes alive on stage.
