About the performance
The idea and the concept were developed in 2015, commissioned by Hong Kong Dance Alliance. With the rapid growth of technology, it provide us immediate information and communication. Save us a lot of “time” and “effort”. At the same time many of us have realised it is slowly shading ‘moments’ in our daily life. Still Human is our expression of our fear and concern to the fast scrolling technology that might be taking off our innate senses slowly, bit by bit. To Alert our skin. Sensing the needs of recalling the primitive memories of being a human. To acknowledge, to feel, to break, to enjoy every bits of it, to remind ourselves.
4 Degrees Dance Laboratory
Found in 2013 by bunch of young dance-artists from Hong Kong, working with and through the local Hong Kong society, and have a strong conceptual drive to our dance making. We have a strong desire to gather young talented artists to make arts with us at this creative space.
The Four Degrees create performance with a unique style in dance and actively doing collaborations with other art medias. Our creation is not just a dance piece, it is an experience, an exploring journey that is built around and inside the space.
