If there is one collaboration that I am looking forward to this Spring besides SPIN2020, this is one of them. The reason is having collaborating with WuKang for the past 3 years, It's been creatively fun and exciting. Now, it's the new comer's turn. After bringing in a few more new blood in Horse Dance Theatre this past year. For the first time, I have an opportunity to work all the young choreographers in this company. It is interesting to see what they think and how they react to costume on stage.
In Tzu-Ling piece, it's all purely about body swinging and moving to the rhythm. The electronic like inspire sounds along with the swinging arm and leg resembling some kind of machinery like movement. It's sporty and active, I think.
All dancers wearing socks, so the duet will actually see lots of sliding with one dancer lifting each other and placing their bodies around the stage.

點子鞋子2010 黃懷德 chocolate costume sketch

Notebook Date: 1.22.2010
Title chocolate sometimes lead to an image of brown costume, that is not entirely the idea here. Instead, we use stretch spandex shinny fabric with the idea of presenting the dancer with a sharper futuristic look. It suppose to offset the conventional thought of classical ballet. The contour line should draw interesting line when the leg cross over in 5th position.
