Explore hybrid bodies, shifting thresholds, and the fluid states between human and non-human forms.
About this Event
作為Phasmahammer全新委約演出《渡界流身》的兩場延伸活動，誠邀您一同參與！
Join us for two intimate events extending from ‘The Littoral Drift’, Phasmahammer's newly commissioned performance exploring hybrid bodies, shifting thresholds, and the fluid states between human and non-human forms.
3–5pm: 藝術家帶領的形體工作坊 Artist-led Movement Workshop
這場密集形體工作坊誠邀您與藝術家Justin Talplacido Shoulder（Phasmahammer）一同探索生成具身動作的表演性策略。Phasmahammer 將分享其創作過程，讓參加者有機會尋找屬於自己的姿態語言，並試驗源自其個人與文化背景的身體練習。受「身體氣象」形體框架及導師Victoria Hunt的研習所啟發，參加者將透過動態身體練習，探索身體與環境的交匯，並關注內在與外在條件的流動變化。
This intensive movement workshop invites you to join artist Justin Talplacido Shoulder (Phasmahammer) in exploring performative strategies for generating embodied movements. Phasmahammer will share their creative processes, offering participants the opportunity to find their gestural language and test body-based approaches drawn from their personal and cultural background. Inspired by the Body Weather movement framework and their study with mentor Victoria Hunt, participants will be guided through dynamic physical exercises that explore the intersections of bodies and environments, attending to the shifting internal and external conditions.
6:30–8pm: 藝術家分享會，隨後設見面交流環節 Artist Sharing, followed by Meet & Greet session
一場由藝術家及不加鎖舞踊館藝術總監李偉能進行的對談，由「此身彼岸」聯合策展人何思穎主持。Phasmahammer 將分享其協作式蛻變實踐「夜作」多年來的演變——從夜店聚會，到畫廊與劇場的呈現，作為社群療癒與團結的形式。他們亦會分享全新委約作品《渡界流身》的創作靈感，拆解從陸地與海水交界的閾限處浮現的新跨物種生物，以及它們在流變環境中的生存與適應策略。在多重領域之間，我們能預演並體現怎樣的另類未來？
An intimate conversation with Justin Talplacido Shoulder (Phasmahammer) in dialogue with Joseph Lee, Artistic director of Unlock Dancing Plaza, and moderated by Celia Ho, co-curator of the programme Elsewhere in Me. Phasmahammer will introduce how their collaborative shapeshifting practice ‘Nightcraft’ has evolved over the years, from nightclub gatherings to gallery/ theatre presentations as forms of communal healing and solidarity. They will share the inspirations behind the newly commissioned work The Littoral Drift, unpacking the new interspecies creatures emerging from the threshold where land meets water, and their survival and adaptive strategies in fluctuating conditions. What alternate futures can we rehearse and embody in between multiple realms?
