Comments on the Finalist 

Over the years, Body Phase Studio has continually focused on and laid the foundation for an aesthetic rooted in a sixth sense in art, emphasizing a valuable social aspect. Guided by director YAO Lee-Chun, this work promotes theater as a space where margins and existence can freely unfold. The collaboration between the two performers impresses, evolving from “connecting aphasic bodies” to a vivid realm where desire clashes between life and death. Reversing barriers and constructing subjectivity challenge the cognitive limits imposed by normality, offering freedom within constraints to transcend boundaries and breach discipline through chaotic eros. Amid uncontrolled distortion and discord, this work explores paths to love, from glowing trajectories of light and religious breaths to isolated celebrations and confrontational silences, fostering fierce resilience and vibrant creativity to celebrate life’s hardships and cruelties.
