REMAINS REMAIN 《余》(2015)

Choreographer : Jeffrey Tan

Remains Remain draws inspiration from this poem by Iaan Subhan:

Layers of sand seep
as water washes upon the barren shores
as time wastes by in sorrowful cries
absence weighs heavily
in the hollow of a grieving heart,
in the emptiness of yesterday’s home
remain remains
from your resounding whispers
that I am ready for tomorrow…

Remains Remain is a re-working of an original commission by the NUS Centre for the Arts and presented at NUS Arts Festival 2012, as part of the Solo/Duet triple bill.

M1 CONTACT

Billed for its bold curation, residency programmes, commissioning of local and international works across its several platforms, as well as a smorgasbord of workshops and technique classes, the annual M1 CONTACT Contemporary Dance Festival (CONTACT), presented by The Human Expression (T.H.E) Dance Company, is led by Festival Director and Artistic Director of T.H.E, Kuik Swee Boon. Since it began in 2010, CONTACT has become a pillar event for the contemporary dance scene in Singapore that benefits the local community. It has also grown to be a prominent contemporary dance festival in the region, establishing partnerships with other festivals such as Yokohama Dance Collection and Fukuoka Dance Fringe Festival in Japan, and Seoul Dance Collection and New Dance for Asia - NDA International Festival in South Korea.

T.H.E Dance Company is supported by the National Arts Council under the Major Company Scheme for the period from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2020.
