  • [THE 8 Contemporary ART] 徐明浩 THE 8 - 本
    Choreography by 徐明浩 THE 8, Cho Jae Hyuk
    Wave by Eunyong Sim (from JAMBINAI)
    [本] 자아
    본 작품은 디에잇의 발자취를 담는다.
    다원적인 움직임을 통해 동양의 기운을 표현하며, 그가 창작한 복합적 예술 세계를 보여준다.
    디에잇의 생각과 경험에 기반한 다양한 종류의 움직임이 결합되었으며, 과거와 현재 그리고 그가 추구하는 예술 세계의 성장을 몸으로 표현한다.
    자연과 어우러져 자연과 숲이 인도하는 방향을 온전히 느끼고, 탈자아를 통해 다시금 초심과 순수에 귀결되도록 한다.
    본 작품은 전위적 몸짓으로 구현된 아트 영상으로 앞으로 그가 추구하는 예술에 한 걸음 다가서는 주요 작업이 될 것이다.

    It’s like Xu Minghao has gradually developed himself as a person who has a great sense of the mother earth. He poured his passion for the earth, through his ability in contemporary movements, painting, music, poetry, psychology books, even on tea ceremony as his new hobby. This loving boy deserved more recognition and appreciation for all his talent.

    Not sure if anyone else has already mentioned this but just to bring up the fact that he's performing this in the forest as opposed to some prepared stage/set/studio - where the ground is uneven (with random rocks and roots) and there's loose soil (sure, not as slippery as sand but still...).
    These factors can mess with your sense of balance and just highlights his versatility and adaptability as a dancer in not being restricted to performing in just one defined space.

    @mochimochi-fd9et Před 3 lety +1153

    here's my personal interpretation of the choreography (from a chinese, also a dancer!):
    本 (běn) refers to origin, roots
    in the video we see how minghao transitions through different dance styles: slightly contemporary/modern ⇢ bboy ⇢ martial arts, and pay attention to the CHRONOLOGY
    we know that minghao has been learning contemporary only recently, maybe this one or two years, thus the contemporary sequence represents his present, the current him.
    then we see breakdancing. minghao has been learning breaking since he was a kid so it's probably the most significant dance style to him since he's been dancing it for more than half his life, and this signifies his past, what made him who he is.
    the last dance sequence we see is the martial arts (wushu) one, which symbolizes his chinese roots, and i just think this is his way of saying "i've made it this far and i'm still exploring, but i won't ever forget where i came from".
    it's a beautiful touch how he arranged the sequence of the dance styles -- from the one seemingly of latest significance to the oldest one chronologically in time, in reverse order in the dance. it comes to a full circle when you realize the message he's trying to convey all through the dance and the dance only. i love this man so so much🥺

    @onesecrethobbit8022 Před 3 lety +371

    This is truly an amazing piece of art that expresses Minghao's thoughts of his past and present. The title 本‘s original meaning in ancient Chinese means the roots of plants and trees, based on that, it has derived to mean the origin, the essence, the source, the basis, one's self, etc. I think he is trying to depict himself as a tree, coming out of the earth and growing freely in the forest, moving along with the wind and feeling the environment. You can see that he tries to incorporate his various interests in this dance. His moves are a clear representation of both the contemporary dance structure, as well as Chinese martial arts and breakdancing techniques. We can also find the references for comparing the growth of a person to a tree in many ancient Chinese philosophical thoughts. And the ideas of peace of mind and embracing nature I believe are influenced by his meditation experience. Interestingly, the music here is played by a Korean musician using the Korean geomungo. Fun fact: the geomungo was created by Wang San-ak back in the 4th century following the form of the Chinese guqin, so you can see a lot of resemblance to guqin in terms of structure, sound, and style, but it also has its own uniqueness. It is a collaboration of both Chinese and Korean culture. I think it is also the perfect representation of Minghao's own personal experience, with his Chinese roots, but always embracing everything new around him, just like the tree absorbing sunlight, water and air from the environment. In his birthday live on Weibo, Minghao mentioned that he recently has developed an interest of communicating with different people and trying things that he had not tried before to get to know different perspectives of the world. This dance is the perfect embodiment of this thought experiment. I am so happy for his growth, both as a dancer and as a person.

    It’s absolutely astonishing how Minghao can take a song with no lyrics or words, put himself into a deserted area, and make a whole story line with just his expressions and his dancing. He puts so much work and effort into these that it amazes me how he wasn’t taken classes for his entire life. He also doesn’t put a specific meaning on the dance so you can interpret it any way you would like which very few can do. In all, stan a dancing LEGEND, stan Minghao

    [本] Self
    This work captures the footsteps of The Eight. It expresses the energy of the East through pluralistic movements, and shows the complex art world he created. Various kinds of movements based on the 8's thoughts and experiences are combined, expressing the past and present and the growth of the art world he pursues with the body. In harmony with nature, it completely feels the direction that nature and forests lead, and through de-self, it leads to originality and purity again. This work is an art image embodied with avant-garde gestures, and will be a major work that takes one step closer to the art he pursues in the future.

    The Chinese character is 本 "ben" which most commonly means " *book* " but this can also mean " *stem/root* " of a plant (why he touches the tree trunk in the teaser).
    Furthermore, this word is used to mean " *origin* " and " *foundation* " and " *source* ".
    Stemming from these, combining it with other words, it means
    " *One's own work* "
    and " *present* " (synonymous to "current")
    and also " *original* "
    The8 always putting out masterpieces *chef's kiss

    The music and the dance moves gave me a sense of alienation from life.

  • @noybass4361
    @noybass4361 Před 3 lety +230

    My interpretation:
    At first, we can see a mountainous area with a forest. Minghao enters the area and touches a tree at the gateway. He looks around and starts to try taking in his new surroundings.
    The music begins and minghao looks around in the dance which still seems to portray how unfamiliar this surrounding is. He makes several flowing hand movements which look like they symbolize water or the natural flow of nature. Next, the dance incorporates pulling hand movements that show that he is being pulled into this world after having the time to look around and take in all the new sensations and sights of nature. His hands come out from the ground like a sprout beginning its bloom. He is overflown with energy and cleanses himself as he starts his growth. The energy erupts as he blooms with certainty. As beautiful as growth is, it is also very powerful. Minghao goes near the lady playing the instrument but is being pulled back into his place. His movements quicken and it seems as if he doesn't feel like he belongs there anymore. By the end, the music quickens too and we can see minghao running away until the camera shows the forest again and we can assume he succeeded in his escape.
    This is my interpretation of this amazing piece. I'm sure a lot of hard work was put into making and it definitely shows. The camerawork, the music, obviously minghao's incredible dancing, the unique clothing and much more that made it happen from behind the scenes.
    Thank you for making this piece ❤️
