EXPLORE DANCE TANZPAKT STADT-LAND-BUND

1000 KISSES (12+)

Ever kissed a thousand times? Two dancers don’t mince their words and try it out. Somewhere between fun, frust and – above all – effort, their lips become dry and kissing becomes a completely new thing: conventions, gender and lame prejudices dissolve and draw a rather strange movement portrait of voluptuously touching. From South-East Asian incantations to Western hypersexualisation, everything is there and blurs before the spectators’ eyes into a jungle of images and movement. (＠_＠)

Raymond Liew Jin Pin

graduated at the Folkwang University (Essen) with BA/MA in dance and choreography, as well as a Diploma at ASWARA in Malaysia where he learned the multiple traditional dance forms such as Malay,Chinese and Indian dance. As a dancer he worked among others with mit Nature Theatre of Oklahoma, Theater Bremen, Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch, Samir Akika, and Ben J. Riepe. His choreographies were shown at International Contemporary Dance Festival of Panama and d’Motion International Dance Festival in Malaysia.

By reflecting his dance background, Raymond researches what a fusion of dances can be. He questions the encounter of different dance techniques within his body and works, disintegrates these techniques and interweaves them to seek a common base. The aim is to figure out a method to fuse these influences with an equally analytical and intuitive approach.
