A Day at ACAW

Ho’s intimate performance at FIELD MEETING was choreographed on the basis of our everyday perceptions. It “attaches to familiar experience in life: cycles, relationships, rituals, dialogues, spaces, and events.” The artist’s main premise in the performance was to regulate ‘time’ as a clue and magnifier of the subtle rituals often overlooked in our daily lives.

In her works, she explores daily rituals, the deconstruction of movement, and the fluid relationship between light and shadow. She is interested in the tension between dream and reality. Her works simultaneously envelop the audience while also destabilizing the viewers’ traditional views and modes of perception.
