The Lost Alphabet: A Dance and Multi-media Evening with Jane Jelita Chen and her beautiful accompanying dancers and actors.


Bali-based dancer-choreographer Jane Jelita Chen presents The Lost Alphabet, an app. 100-minutes performance of infusing Scents, Light, Sound and Dance Motion in poetic way.

Presented by BaliOnStage and taken from a series of Jane Jelita Chen’s choreographies, the program includes live performance with dancers from Bali, Java and Malaysia, and a 15 minutes video documentation of her repertoire opened by the Theravada Buddhist World President in 2002.

A respected and multi-talented artist, Jane Jelita Chen continues her exploration of creative expression and involvement in a range of artistic medias, including over 20 years practice of White Crane Silat martial arts.

Jane continually experiences a journey of discoveries within a body; a process of looking and finding oneself through the full comprehension of movement and its aesthetic application as evidenced in her teachings and stage and ceremonial performances. The rhythm of her activities in daily life, whether sacred or profane, became the source of these explorations and discoveries.

International Gala -Butoh & Dance






Ima Tenko (Japan)

Dancing in the In-Between

Life and death, the afterworld and the mundane world, heaven and earth, cruelty and compassion, stillness and motion, back and front…the point of contact, spaces between provides us the sensory experience of positive (realistic) beauty and dream and time and place.

貂子舞踏公演「間に舞う」

  生と死、黄泉と常生、天と地、魔性と慈悲、静と動、表と裏、等これらの対極する矛盾の接点及び間こそが、われわれにポジティヴな(現実的な)美と夢、時と場である事を、体感させてくれる。




Qudus Onikeku (Nigeria, France)

QADDISH
Qudus Onikeku has been invited by the “Festival d’Avignon” in France, to present his new creation in July 2013. This new project is the last part of a trilogy "Of Solitude, Alterity and Memory" which began with My Exile is in my Head (2009/2010) and continued with STILL/life (2011/2012). In a span of 5 years Qudus is able to touch on these existential questions that pave way to the discovery of the authentic self.

 

The Past, Presents and the Future, it is within this cycle of time that Qudus’ artistic preoccupations are caught; they remain the central theme within his works, showing the relationship with human memory and the past. With QADDISH Qudus takes on a journey of memory transmission with his 80 years old father, to explore the dualities of father/son and memory/amnesia, as well as the trinity of, background, middle-greound and foreground. With a special attention on the middle-ground, which is undramatic and unspectacular, is neither the origin of things nor the last things; is aware of a future to head into, and a past to fall back on; it is the home of doubt and indecision, of suspension, of disbelief, of playfulness, of the unpredictable and irony.
