In a world of rapid political and social change, we experience loud volumes of opinions and beliefs, many extreme and absolute. Finding one's personal belief and identity becomes increasingly complicated. Choreographer Kuik Swee Boon explores these issues through the language of dance-where solidity and fluidity intersect-in a dialogue between the body and its environment.
Invisible Habitudes《看不见的归属》expresses the authentic experiences of each dancer, telling the story of a fluid identity woven from memory, childhood, culture and ethnicity. Each unique body upholds inclusivity and compassion as antidotes to the relentless pursuit of one's convictions at the expense of others.
