Creators: Wang, Lu and Yijie, Li and Cui, Juice (Shuting)
Description:

This presentation discusses Yixinguanwu, a scenographic practice developed through bodily stillness, transformation and co-presence. The work explores how Daoist concepts can be approached not through direct representation, but through changes in bodily form, spatial relations and the encounter between performers, objects and spectators. Through these processes, scenography becomes a form of mediation in which meaning emerges from the continual transformation of bodies and their surroundings.
