靜默邊境 Absent Presentee

State of loneliness and loss of communication in the highly-mediated cosmopolitain is depicted as four channels of paralleled narratives are going on in the cattle depot simultaneously, with disturbing layers of sounds and lights. Audience must find their own ways to view. 

The second half of the performance is a spatial experience of silence with installations spreading in the cattle house. 

It is under the ‘Border’ series of Littlebreath, with the “Border I” project as Present Absentee premiered in 2014.  Continuing both the topics of thoughts and experiments on artistic forms, Absent Presentee is using a totally different perspective and approach to hack in the same issues.

[Nomination] Performer Ivy Tsui was nominated as the Best Actress in the Hong Kong Theatre Libre 2016.

【報導 MEDIA COVERAGE】

Media 1/「三角志」「有沒有聽過燈下黑？在最接近光明的地方，有一片無底的黑。」在安逸的生活表面，一切美好而平安。然而當你一撕開遮掩著真相的外皮，便能發現醜陋的人性。一對雙生兒、貌似無害的媽媽、吞下密碼條的阿離——他們日復日，在小房子裡重複著日常生活的軌跡，當中卻毫無生存的氣息。「有些人每天都生活在我們的都市中。但對我而言，他們卻似乎在生命中缺席了。因他們的肉體仍在此，但他們是否還擁有靈魂呢？」

Critic 1/ 「演藝風流」《靜默邊境》

聲像裝置 X 身體劇場 – 邊境之二
Multimedia Installation X Site-Specific Body Theatre – Boder II

有沒有聽說過燈下黑？
在最接近光源的地方，有一片無底的黑。
At the closest spot of the light source lies a bottomless pit of darkness.

無動機殺人 Killing without motive
無動機生存 Living without vision
無明無無明 Being ignorant without delusion

說話言不及意，唯有以身體廝磨，迎接寧靜兇猛。
Surrounded by all the nonsense speeches, only with our body can we defy the silent turbulence.
