Wind Shadow
Choreographic master Lin Hwai-min has created a contemporary dance work that makes shadows come alive. Joining forces with leading Chinese visual artist Cai Guo-Qiang,
Wind Shadow is a study of motion created through monochromatic palettes and the use of light and shadow. Set to a haunting soundscape, the dancers capture the intangible quality of the wind and the variable structures of shadows. Projections of Cai's gunpowder drawings merge into silhouettes and form a moving art installation within which the dancers engage with their independent shadows. Co-commissioned by Yong Lin Foundation; National Chiang Kai-Shek Cultural Center (Taiwan). 80 min with no interval
