After Snowfall | Hong Kong Dance Company | Show Introduction

Dance Rhyme, Calligraphy, Martial Arts, Technology ----- A Multimedia Collaboration

The Inking of Imagery. Man and Words as One.

The title of After Snowfall comes from the famous letters to his friends by Wang Xizhi, the Sage of Calligraphy. Written more than 1,600 years ago, the pieces created with a simple brush and ink conveys a far-reaching meaning. Hong Kong Dance Company is pleased to present this new multimedia dance programme, connecting us with the Sage’s words, across time and space.

The highest artistic standard of Chinese traditional art and culture is to attain a harmony between heaven and earth, blend the two forces, and transcend past and present. Hong Kong Dance Company has based its latest creation on Chinese culture, selecting some of the shortest pieces from the Sage of Calligraphy as the inspiration. Dancers who have been trained in martial arts for seven years will lift the brush and ink sticks and use the art of dance to trace the calligraphy. This new production weaves a “character” of strength and grace, combining the fluidity of dance and the power of martial arts with skill and artistry.

A quick snowfall remembered and a thousand years of ink enjoyed, a new creation in the art of dance. How wonderful!
