Inner Sublimity

Presented with

Inner Sublimity traverses currents of Eastern and Western philosophy through dance, creating a dynamic dialogue between traditions preserved across generations. This cross-pollination bridges Taiwan’s heritage, grounded in reverence and ritual, with Europe’s tapestry of religious practices, carving an artistic approach that challenges colonial narratives and enriches contemporary explorations of spirituality. 

Creatively imagined for the unique space of the Vancouver Art Gallery, the performance begins with a meditative ritual and poem, setting the stage for a transcendental duet of deep somatic movement. The integration of an experimental sound score and mesmerizing interactive new media projections, expertly crafted by these renowned local visual design masters, intensifies the atmosphere, building to a crescendo that probes the inner depths of human complexity.

Through this synthesis of paradigms, the artists spark new connections between disparate identities, cultural backgrounds, histories and lived experiences, paving the way for communion. Their exploration of spirituality and mortality demystifies taboos and opens a fresh lens for audience members to reimagine their relationship to these eternal themes.
