About this Event

“Chuan” (船), meaning “boat” in Chinese, serves as the festival’s central metaphor—one that evokes collective passage, gathering, and departure. Vanishing (4.0) transforms the performance space into an immersive, participatory environment structured as a symbolic night-sailing boat, drawing from Chinese mythology and maritime histories.

The work unfolds as a solo performance featuring a dancer who embodies the role of a “boatperson,” alongside a participatory installation that evolves over the course of the event. Upon entry, audience members “board” the space by contributing objects, texts, or fragments from their own prior creative practices. These offerings become part of the boat’s growing structure, situating the audience as both witnesses and co-builders of the performance environment.
