舞团创办人 马金泉及叶忠文 获邀赴香港及广州演出 Anthony and Aman Performing in Hong Kong and Guang Zhou

共享空间专业舞团创办人马金泉及叶忠文将于7月20日至30日间赴香港参与《亚洲当代舞林汇演之AM篇》及在广州举行的第7届广东现代舞周,演出他们的最新作品《X禅》以及举行大师班授课。
The founders of Dua Space, Anthony Meh and Aman Yap will be performing in Hong Kong and Guang Zhou from 20th to 30th July in ‘Contemporary Dance Showcase - Asian Male Episode' and Guang Dong Modern Dance Festival repectively , presenting their latest choreography, 'X-Zen' and giving lectures in master classes of dance.


《X禅 X-Zen》

说无意,但柳暗花明,观者自观,个味其中。
It is a specious thing; however, what you see in your eyes is your greatest savour.


以太极八卦的黑白异象为根本:白为阳,也为真实体像;黑为阴,为幻化体像。白为实,黑为虚,黑白之间在舞台上跳衍成一体两面虚实相合的互动关系,比喻“人生是一场自己与另一个自己的斗争,顾与不顾,合与不合,顺与逆,白与黑,冲突与和谐等等对比反应”。音乐跳脱一般“东方禅舞”的旧框,以极为现代音乐及手法编创,以超实现的形象舞说禅意。
The choreography based on Tai-Chi where White, the Yang (positive), is the reality; Black, the Ying (negative), is the virtual illusion. Interaction between the black and white in the dance will present the interrelationship of reality and illusion, giving the message of ‘Life is a fight between yourself and the other you, like moving forward and backward, white and black, contrast and harmony and etc’.

Every year, hundreds of young Chinese choreographers and dancers gather in Guangzhou to present their new works in the Festival. The festival has also featured the foremost international modern dance innovators, and has grown into the hub of Chinese modern dance development where new ideas are turned into reality.

The stage in Asia is an indispensable part of the stage in the contemporary world. It is time to rediscover the contemporary vocabulary of Asian dance artists, who have been too often overlooked or pigeonholed as simply “oriental”. The coming festival will gather several hundred Asian artists from Japan, Korea, Cambodia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Israel, and North America as well as from mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan in an attempt to discover our own Asian dance idioms over 7 days in over 60 master classes and more than 60 performances.

07-08-2010 亚罗士打吉华独中礼堂《完美双福完美人生》Performance in Alor Setar

今天会是相当累的一天,早上在大山脚的住处吃过早餐后,便启程到下一站——亚罗士打吉华独中礼堂,为晚上的演出做彩排。两个小时的车程后,我们终于到达演出场地。由于时间紧逼,大家得加快手脚,在最短的时间内完成彩排!彩排结束后,大家就马不停蹄的开始化妆准备演出!
We left Bukit Mertajam after breakfast and heading for Alor Setar, the next stop. It would be a tiring day. Once we reached the performing venue after a 2 hour of travel, we straight away started the rehearsal. Since there was limited time for the rehearsal, we have to get things done very very fast.

当晚,由马来西亚亚罗士打国际青年商会主办的演出是给双福残障自强发展协会筹款,另外还给一位截肢的女生筹款。演出结束后,主办单位的工作人员还给每一位参与演出的演出者献上鲜花,让大家好开心。北马巡回演出,就在这温馨快乐的气氛下画下完美的句点。
Organized by Junior Chamber International Alor Setar, besides raising fund for Dhuang Fu itself, there was another amputee girl who received charity fund from JCI as well. After the performance, the organizing party presented each of us a flower and this made all the performers so happy. The performance tour ended in such a warm atmosphere.

Finished all the performance, here, we had to say goodbye to northern Malaysia.


谢谢JCI为大家准备午餐。 Thanks JCI for arranging us a lunch before we went home.




回家去咯!Going home!

这一次,能够参与这一场意义非凡的演出,相信大家心里头都十分感动。感动得不是成功地把演出完成了,而是见证了双福所谓的“自强”。同样身为残障人士的团员门,除了在舞台上挥洒着汗水,也帮助其它残障团体筹款,让双福的自强精神得到最完美的诠释。另外,这一次与大家通信,一路上给大家最无微不至的照顾的导游小姐——爱芬也让大家十分感动。在学校假期的同时,她毅然推开其他旅行团,自愿参与我们这一次的巡演。这一次的演出能够成功,她当然功不可抹。
带着疲惫的身躯及饱满的心灵,这一趟行程就这样——回家去了!

This time, to be able to participate in such a performance tour, I believed that every member of the tour was very touched deep in their heart. The spiritual elevation did not come from the success of performing great on styage but to witness the 'independence' of Shuang Fu. With their members who are also handicap, besides performing well on stage, they help to raise fund for other handicap and charity bodies.Other than that, our tour guide, Miss Ai-Fern who took care the all of us for this few days not only appear to be only a tour guide, but also help us in a lot of way. During this trip, it was school holiday, which was said to be the peak season for travelling agency. However, she volunteered herself to join our tour and I can say, without her, our trip might ended misearbly. Really thanks her a lot.
So then, this ends our journey this time, with a worn body and loadful spirit.


感谢导游爱芬及司机先生。Thanks for the help from our tour guide, Miss Ai Fern and the bus driver.
