[ Under the wall • I ]
Performance

•
Walking barefoot under the stone wall of the prison, 24 balls of thread pour out of the flower skirt and roll slowly downwards along the sloping path, rolling the threads with the palms of the hands, arms and shoulders and gradually retrieving them in front of the body. Stepping on the bricks to find balance, lifted the bricks one by one, 16 bricks to build a small square fence, holding a small hammer in both hands and pounding the upper bricks until the hammer broke. Gazing into the eyes of the audience, breaking the single perspective of being gazed at, the energy field expands to the surrounding, breaking free from the threads that wrap around the body, embracing the control and being controlled that clings to the body and the mind, taking a deep breath and feeling the tumbling throb of the live performance.

[石牆下]
赤腳走在監獄石牆下,24個線球從花裙中傾瀉而出,隨著傾斜的路緩緩地向下滾,以手掌、手臂和肩膊捲起線,漸漸回收在身前,不斷繞著的重複動作,試圖控制線球,然而線球也不斷控制著身體,行動變得被限制而笨拙。踏上石磚上尋找平衡,逐塊搬起石磚,16塊磚頭建構一個正方形的小圍牆,雙手拿著小鐵鎚猛烈上層的磚頭,直至鐵鎚爛掉。凝視觀眾的眼睛,打破被凝視的單一視角,能量力牆擴展到四周,掙脫纏繞在身與心的線,擁抱那依附在身的控制與被控制,深呼吸一口氣,感受行為中帶來的翻滾悸動。

第二晚的行為比第一晚更為激烈,我把每個行動再推進一步,身體的狀態被每一次的動拉扯著,漸漸疊加上去,觀眾的凝視聚合著能量,我感受到熱刺的力度與支援,就像一條無形的線牽引著整個空間。感謝各位到場見證!
