D_Antidote Production was established in 2022, with Artistic Director CHUANG PO-HSIANG endeavoring to explore the realms of the body. Drawing inspiration from both societal life and imaginative landscapes, the company seeks to transform and merge artistic vocabulary through the expression of diverse elements. The aim is to delve into the intricate sensations of life and embody a distinctive visual style, attempting to shape works that engage in a meaningful dialogue with both the audience and society. The aspiration is to construct a creative mirror through the act of creation, allowing viewers to seek their own life remedies. Art, in this context, serves to make individuals more connected, and through continuous creation, the company aims to unite people and aspires to be a source of warmth.
Palingenesis
Inspired by a biological concept of regeneration, this dance trio is an extreme expression of intimacy, trust, and transformation performed with extraordinary kaleidoscopic control.
Palingenesis
Three lithe, masked bodies emerge as if from some primordial ooze and proceed to morph their way through a series of carefully crafted chain reactions. Are they individuals, a single organism or both?
Inspired by what has been variously used as a biological. theological, political and philosophical concept of regeneration, hot-shot Taiwanese choreographer Chuang Po-Hsiang’s timeless, absorbing dance trio is an extreme expression of intimacy, trust and transformation.
Dream-like audio-visuals enhance the cast’s extraordinary kaleidoscopic control. Pinned to themes of rebirth and the life cycle of both nature and human nature, the net effect is intense, strangely arresting, possibly ecstatic and a reminder that what the body can do might well be limitless.
A thrilling and energetic performance, with choreography and visuals that fully immerse the audience.
