「table of contents」中文解作「目錄」,是大部份書藉的開首頁,用於闡述內容架構。

三人策劃團隊以混合而跳躍的聯想,將「table of contents」化成一張張實體的枱,作為知識交流的聚腳點、盛載意念內容的器皿,以至「演談」 (lecture performance) 的講台/舞台。

八位創作人分組「搭枱」跨域交流,從各自專業界別的構作出發,就不同議題的關注,探索意想不到的共鳴;從對方的故事,對照自己的歷程。當中,亦看見不同界別既共通又各異的「表演性」。表演性並非劇場創作獨有,在不同領域、媒界,其實都以不同形態展現著。通過這趟「搭枱」的過程,最後契合成四組交融的展覽作品,以及四組「演談」。

「演談」為近年國際流行的跨領域表演形式。既是演說:分享知識、觀點、議題的同時;又是演出:按講者或創作人的構思而加入表演元素,例如身體、聲音、影像等等。

「演談」在其中兩個週末舉行,但於日間的展覽,幾組枱,也就是幾組創作人的展覽作品,呈現他/她們較為抽象的概念的面向。展覽請來 KaCaMa Design Lab 團隊,為四組創作人就他們不同界別的特質、共同關心的題目、卻又不同的思考方式,構作出不同的「枱」,讓創作人置放、融合內容於其中,成為不同的「Table(s) of Contents」。

在這裡,枱,既是載體,又與內容相連。不同物料、形態的枱,精巧地結合成四組創作人的展覽作品,大家拭目以待。

“Table of contents” generally refers to the opening pages for books where readers are provided with a brief description of the structured materials.

Juxtaposing thoughts and perspectives, the three-member curatorial team are trying to connect the “table of contents” to a physical table which will serve as a rendezvous for knowledge exchange, a vessel for ideas and a podium/stage for “lecture performance”.

The project provides opportunity in connecting and pairing of the eight creators for dialogues, and generating interaction with each other based on their respective professions. In the process, unexpected resonance sparked, on social or personal issues. They also drew reflections upon similar and contrasting experiences. In such context, “performativity” can be observed as something common yet different across different disciplines. Performativity is not unique to theatre production; it manifests itself in distinct forms among sectors and media. Through “table sharing”, four sets of intertwined works and conversations are expected to be reached.

“Lecture performance” has gained much international attention as a cross-disciplinary performance form in recent years. It is both a speech: sharing of knowledge, ideas and issues, and a performance: a performance with elements such as body, sound, images, etc., conceived by the speaker or creator.

Apart from the “lecture performance” on two weekends, there will also be a daytime exhibition showcasing the creators’ concepts through “several tables”. We have proudly invited KaCaMa Design Lab to design and produce the “tables” for the project, where the tables are integrating with the creators’ unique disciplines, common concerns and unique ways of thinking. The table here is a carrier and a wire to the content. Tables of varied materials, shapes and conditions, intricately merge and form the four groups of exhibits. The outcome is beyond our imagination.


跨領域「演談」Cross-disciplinary “Lecture Performances”

仿鴨與掩蓋 Duck and Cover

假如災難來臨,而你只能躲藏家中,家中食物能維持一家人生存多久?

「Duck and Cover」模仿鴨子般縮下身子去掩蓋自己,是源於50年代冷戰時期,美國政府教導民眾應對原子彈襲擊的民防社會指導影片。以「Duck and Cover」方式抵抗核武當然成疑。到70年代英國政府製作了一段怪異但實用的影片教導民眾從核災難中求生,建議躲藏時間最少14天。恰巧在新型肺炎爆發期間,政府有隔離14天的抗疫措施。這個情景大家似乎已經不再陌生,但可有想到香港家庭14天的糧食儲備會有什麼?

吃,在災難發生時普遍成為首要關注。疫症期間,香港人對吃的需求亦絕不停留在生存層次上。街上突然開滿了進口食品店,賣的貨品叫人大開眼界。新開的高級餐廳如雨後春筍,二三千元一餐仍一席難求,付款預約後仍需等三個月以上才能入席。相信這都是香港特有現象。

在這次演談中,黃麗茵與黃俊達在回應這個主題時,會一起示範一道「鴨和蓋」的菜式;亦會介紹求生食品,讓各觀眾面對災難來臨時,也有不同層次的選擇。

Imagine you are struck by a disaster having nowhere to flee but stranded at home, how long do you think your pantry supplies can keep the family alive?

Imitating a duck to hunch down and elude a pursuer, ‘Duck and Cover’ is a safety drill and civil defense social guidance film introduced by the US government during the cold war in the 1950s. Such approach to nuclear resistance was indeed questionable. By the 1970s, the British government revamped a bizarre yet practical video about surviving the scenario by a minimum of 14 days in hiding. Coincidentally, during the recent pandemic outbreak, local government introduced a 14-day quarantine ordinance as an effort to contain the disease. By now the two-week confinement is no longer a provocative concept, but rather an outspread practice. While we are so accustomed to the new norm, have we thought about the stockpile content among Hong Kong families?

In times of crisis, food is nonetheless the main concern. Hong Kong people’s need for food way exceeds survival consumption. Streets are overflown with imported groceries with mind-blowing price tags. High-end restaurants emerged. A meal for HK$2,000-3,000 is in demand, and a paid reservation means only to put you on waitlist for over three months. In response to this unique phenomenon, Cam Wong and Ata Wong will collaborate on a ‘duck and cover’ dish in their lecture-performance. They will also explore eating options during mishaps by introducing unconventional emergency food.

14 & 15/1/2022 (五及六 Fri & Sat)  21:00 

塑造一個表演,不論是親身落水的韻律泳運動員,或是思考性的編劇/劇場構作,都同樣關注如何掌握時間的「流動」。如何在水中展現節奏與力量,有如在問如何在劇情中展現張力。兩個不同的演出場域 – 泳池與劇場,兩個南轅北轍的專業 – 韻律泳與劇作,在考慮角色扮演、節奏、力量、形式、敍事及結構等領域卻遙相呼應。

她擅長的,她都缺乏;透過對方,她們看見自己。兩位創作人黃詩懿、潘詩韻將一同重新審視過往經驗,在無形的時間及空間的流動中,找到彼此的聚合點;以影像、文字、對話及示範,與觀眾一同內聚外放,凝練自身。

When it comes to sculpting a performance, whether for rhythmic swimming or reflective theatre dramaturgy, the ‘flow’ of time is the essence. Showing rhythm and power in the water is comparable with projecting tension in a play. The pool crashes the theatre; rhythmic swimming collides with dramaturgy. The distinct spaces and varying professions seclude yet converge in terms of role-play, rhythm, power, form, narrative and structure.

What she is good at, she lacks; through each other, they see themselves. The previously unconnected ‘shes’, Sze-yi Wong and Janice Poon, will intertwin in the invisible flow of time and space by re-examining past experiences. Using images, words, dialogues and demonstrations, they will embark on an overlapped journey of personal discovery and refinement, together with the audience.

花道.劇場.修行
Ikebana, theatre and spiritual practices

21 & 23/1/2022 (五及日 Fri & Sun)20:00 

花道家在花器中修整枝葉,演員在劇場中進行探索。花道與劇場,雖然是不同的藝術形式,但是演員與花道家透過游走於舞台與人生、穿梭於花器與大自然,從而觀察人間之情、思考世間之理,並藉著刻苦訓練自身技藝,來修練心性。花道與劇場的原點,與「修行」有莫大的關係。

日本古時的能劇論著《風姿花伝》以「花」論能劇。劇場與花,在日本早有宿世因緣。當透過花道反映自身的劇場演員,遇上以花器作為舞台的花道家時,會如何將兩種截然不同的藝術形式合二為一呢?

本演談將帶領觀眾穿越兩個藝術家:林沛濂與梁偉怡的生命與工作,分享他們透過各自的藝術形式修行的體悟。

Ikebana artists prune branches and leaves in a container. Performers explore the theatre. Despite differences in art forms, theatre performers and ikebana artists share similar practices and characteristics. Both observe human feelings and contemplate the world by roaming between the stage and life, vases and nature; they foster spirituality through rigorous training of distinctive skills. The origins of ikebana and theatre are very much related to spiritual practices.

Fūshikaden (The Flowering Spirit), the ancient Noh theatre treatise, discussed the traditional Japanese performing art by referring to the image of flower. Theatre and flowers have long been related in Japan. When a theatre performer who reflects himself through ikebana meets an ikebana artist who uses a container as the stage, how will they fuse the two aesthetic forms into one?

The lecture-performance will invite audience to the lives and work of two artists: Anson Lam and Verdy Leung, who will share insights on the topic through respective artistic practices.

情緒,我們既熟悉,又陌生。趙朗天與黃裕邦,前者以聲音,後者以詩歌作媒介;但不約而同地,情緒作為題旨不斷影響其美學與生活。兩位藝術家經過個多月的搜集及整理,轉化日常所見之物品,成為其情緒的載體。每種情緒都以隱喻或擬人方式呈現,嘗試擴闊大眾對各種情緒的理解及想像。兩位在演談期間,將在觀眾面前逐一解封物件,解釋如何用音樂及詩歌去記錄,赤裸地示範怎樣「處理」情緒。

Emotions, familiar or estranged, haunt. Sound artist Alain Chiu and poet Nicholas Wong attempt to use their medium to confront their lived emotions that constantly influence their aesthetics and ways of living. After more than a month of collecting and sorting artifacts, Chiu and Wong reveal the emotional landscape of what they have collected. Each emotion is rendered either musically or poetically. In their lecture-performance session, the artists will unravel their intricate and ambiguous relationship between their chosen objects and the emotions behind them.
