About the Performance:
"Non-Ordinary Services" unfolds a surreal system of bodies and relationships.
The body is dismantled—movements broken, reassembled, reprogrammed.
In a fragmented, post-human space, dancers drift without gravity.
Relationships shift, bodies collapse, individuals dissolve.
A loop of service and control repeats—until roles blur, until detachment is no longer possible.
First conceived in 2023 as a duet, the work began by examining the raw mechanics between two bodies—testing the limits of "service" and "flesh."
Through loading, wearing, disassembling, dancers generate unstable, irreversible connections—mutating like living organisms bound to each other.
Now expanded into a 7-person system, the piece intensifies the flow of service between individual and collective.
With biomechanics and a hyper-designed, dystopian aesthetic, it becomes an immersive environment—one that refuses escape.

Artist Profile:
Choreographer｜Po-Hsiang CHUANG
Praised by Goethe Medal recipient Geng Yi-Wei as "the most promising choreographer of the next generation," Chuang Po-Hsiang explores the intersections between the body, society, and human relationships through a distinctive aesthetic vision. His work deconstructs and reconstructs movement vocabulary, utilizing the body as both a vessel and a medium. With a strong visual language and a sci-fi cinematic atmosphere, he extends the possibilities of contemporary dance, transforming it into an immersive experience that transcends mere performance—becoming a dialectical exploration and a sensory-driven social experiment.
