Details

Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan was the first contemporary dance company in any Chinese speaking community. The company are known for transforming ancient aesthetics into thrillingly original performances that draw on diverse disciplines; from chi kung and meditation to ballet and internal martial arts. Wild Cursive is the final part in this trilogy and explores the idea of spontaneity. Vast scrolls of paper are unfurled on the stage and streams of ink are poured over them, creating a spectacular 'installation in progress'. The seeping ink forms abstract patterns as the dancers display their trademark strength, fluidity, control and mesmerising movement.
