Presented in M1 CONTACT 2017, as the second part of Borderline, Vessel is Kuik Swee Boon’s deepening exploration of “Hollowbody”, a movement philosophy, and training methodology of T.H.E Dance Company. The dancers have to let go of all the unnecessary, yet be grounded in their heighten sense of self-awareness, discovering a sense of space and freedom that then activate a process of dialogue.
With Vessel, the strength is the core premise: what it means for each dancer when the body, heart and mind are aligned as one in movement to reveal the hidden depths of generosity and willpower.
premiere date 16–18 Sep 2021 | Goodman Arts Centre Black Box | Nah Jieying, Klievert Jon Mendoza, Goh Jia Yin & Maybelle Lek
