“You are just like a moving painting.”–audience member.The Dance-Travel Project was first publicly performed in 2010 at the Banqiao Station by Shu-Yi and Dancers. The dance piece that initiated the project, 1875 Ravel and Bolero, was performed specifically without a stage or special lighting and was free for anyone to attend, breaking out of the parameters of the traditional stage performance. Instead, the focus was on communicating the main idea to the audience. The performance changes with its location, and its flexibility to interact with each environment gives the audiences unique experiences.Artist Chang-Chih Chen is a filmmaker who also documents performance arts. In nearly 20 showings of the Dance-Travel Project, Chen has captured the dancers’ interaction with their surroundings. For the first time, his work with the Dance-Travel Project can be experienced as a series, as the photographs are on exhibit throughout the Canmeng spaces. Furthermore, it creates a sense of dialogue between the different performances from various times and spaces.
