Three Blank Episodes

1732503018226465.jpg


Three Blank Episodes is the latest choreography by LDTX’s resident artist ZI Wei.  

It composes of three sections: So Hollow, Very Slow, Extremely Simple. Each section 

relates to a specific core of the movement - the space, the time, and the substance. 

The seemingly varied imageries and textures of the three sections are all directed to 

the choreographer’s ultimate minimalistic aestheticism.


Through huddling of bodies, we see the vastness in space; through flowing of energy, 

we sense the stillness of time; through repetition of movement, we discover the pureness 

of substance. ZI Wei reflects his creative thoughts upon having room-for thoughts, and 

subsequently re-examines the relationship between body movements and space, and time 

and the substance within.
