What does your body remember?
In this debut solo work by dance artist Xin Ji, the story of his body unravels through moments where the emotional and physical collide. Uncertainty, recklessness and euphoria slide into an intimate personal narrative — offering ways to consider our bodies as vehicles for resistance and alchemy.
“Visionary set design by Talia Pua, elevates the performance to a multisensory experience”
“a curated sparseness in visuals outside of bodies on the floor... all working to interact with one another to ultimately centre Xin as the Body.”
