Contactless is a choreographic respond to a year spent online and a process at distance. Our most intimate relationship have moved online. into a distorted space delayed in time. we speak to people while seeing an image of ourselves reflected back at us, reflected back at them, reflected back at us, reflected back.

As our relationships and our bodies are filtered through the digital space, how does that affect the way we communicate and the way that we see ourselves? Body language existed long before the development of spoken language, text or image, let alone digital communication. Physical expression may be primitive but does that mean that it is no longer essential.

Contactless was presented as part of InterBeing (2021)

World Premiere: June 2021, M1 CONTACT Contemporary Dance Festival 2021 – InterBeing, Esplanade Theatre Studio, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, Singapore
