“
Sometimes life unveils itself as an allegory - to impart us
a life experience.
Walk Slowly (慢慢走), is a collaborative movement clinic by Ebelle
Chong, Neo Hong Chin, Pat Toh, and company dancers Jeryl Lee and
Matthew Goh.
In today’s instant gratification and media-driven generation, can
we still allow human perceptions to expand our experiences and
imagination?
The core of this work draws on the daily happenings of each artist
and questions the presence of living in the moment of interactions.
Henceforth, resulting in a collage of familiar activities that interweaves
different viewpoints and sensitivities of the performers.
Through this work, I hope that we can understand our five senses
beyond their distinct means of perceiving our world. Instead,
collectively they enable us to better experience our surrounding.
Maybe this is how we can catch the nuances and richness of our
daily lives.
Let’s slow down, immerse ourselves in the pacing of the performance,
and start appreciating why we need to now, more so than ever, walk
slowly…
