Re-thinking dance and performance in the pandemic era

Produced by Cinemovement
An Esplanade Commission

In a tiny space surrounded by monitors, modems and a team of technicians, dance artist Chen Wu-kang oversees the production of 14, an ambitious new work that challenges the limits of performance live streaming. Far-removed from his audiences, Chen, the artistic director of one of Taiwan's most sought-after dance companies, HORSE, negotiates the boundaries between technology and art. In a work emblematic of the pandemic era, is the medium truly the message?

14 is available online until 31 Oct 2021, Sun, 11.59pm. Watch it here.
