《虛/實》Hidden / Manifest 第三幕 Act 3

《虛/實》
為期兩年的「嶺南武術之數碼藝術及教育試驗計劃」由中華武學會主辦並獲文化體育及旅遊局「藝能發展資助計劃」的躍進資助，於2021-2023年推行。當中「嶺南武術精英培訓計劃」訓練出一批融會中華嶺南武術及表演藝術的年輕教學者，並以《虛/實》表演作為計劃的總結。完成課程的學員更會聯同知名音樂家、編舞家、多媒體藝術家一同參與創作，展示武術、表演藝術及藝術科技的完美融合，一同探索現實和虛擬之間的界線。
「虛/實」是中國武術中重要的二元概念，當中包含了武術中一切的攻防組合，包含剛柔、動靜、強弱等概念。這些對立面可以在空間和時間中以不同的形式呈現，無論是作為動態形式、馬步、或攻防之技，或表達相搏之間，肉眼所見不到但確實存在的重心和力量轉移。這種二元性非常切合探索現實和虛擬之間的界線。
第三幕
編舞﹕楊雲濤
演出︰何皓斐*、王志昇*
這一幕所表達的武術視為表演藝術的參與者和觀察者，所關注的是武術訓練對身體狀態帶來的改變，這種改變也許是具東方哲理、氣韻的肢體藝術的開始。這是武術文化在藝術的角度最具意義的地方、值得思考及身體力行。

Hidden / Manifest
Institute of Chinese Martial Studies (“ICMS”) is dedicated to the academic study of Chinese martial studies, focusing on the research of Chinese martial arts and their associated historical, social and cultural aspects. Through research, publication, and educational activities, ICMS aims to preserve the heritage of China’s martial culture.
The hidden-manifest dichotomy is one of the most important dualistic concepts in Chinese martial arts. It encapsulates the totality of tactical combinations of feinting and striking, the opposition of lightness and solidity, which may materialise in space and time as different movement forms, whether as stances and footwork, techniques in attack and defence or, imperceptible to the eye, in how one distributes weight his / her weight or force as you grapple or bind your arms / weapon with those of your opponent’s. This dichotomy is also highly appropriate in the context of the exploration we make between what is real and what is virtual.
Act 3
Choreographer: Yang Yuntao
Performers: Ho Ho Fei*, Ong Tze Shen*
The Final Act is an attempt to convey the transformative impact of martial arts training on the body. This transformation may serve as the beginning of a bodily artistic expression imbued with Eastern philosophy and grace. This is where martial arts culture holds the greatest significance from an artistic perspective, and commands our further reflection and action.
