FreeSteps – As I dance

FreeSteps is a ten-years-project initiated by SU Wei-Chia since 2013. The project is aiming to explore the most primitive status of dance and to re-explore the possibilities of dancing. The proposition in FreeSteps, is how choreography can be simply and persistently about the body, especially in today’s world. The practice of SU Wei-Chia engages in a two-week dance rehearsal with a group of seniors. Their bodies, which have accompanied them for so long, are characterized by their unique contours, muscle features, skeletons and postures. These elements of beauty are only found in senior dancers and have become the primary focus of SU’s ten-year choreographic project FreeSteps, which draws from the individual narratives and experience of professional dancers, seniors and the young ones to choreograph the body.
