What is Rethinking Co-Existence about?

Present

Two people are locked in a physical dialogue that discusses existence and being. One looks for reasons, the other seeks value. How far will this discussion take them and what is their relationship?

A highly physical, music‐driven signature, conceived with the original cast over 14 intensive days of creation. Jae Duk ’s existential exploration is nuanced with undertones of dark humour that heighten the urgency of his artistic investigation.

Pure

Driven by the perpetual cycle of tension and compromise that accompany every form of social interaction. Inspired by the existential adage, l’existence précède l’essence (existence precedes essence), this stunning duet examines the complexities of living together as both a unit of family and society.

Un-Form

One of Kuik Swee Boon’s most intimate and revealing works, Un-form began as personal, burning questions concerning the validity and value of his role as an artist to his own existence, and within the context of society. Devising solos as a response, the dance artists delve deep into their memories and experiences, inviting audiences to embark on the same journey of self-contemplation.
