Ecnad Project Ltd, Singapore A-the-bird
Ideja za A-the-Bird se začela 1993. godine. Sastoji se od, na izgled, nepovezanih misli: vizuelene forme koje poprimaju ptice, čovečnosti, fantazija, nada, smisla za gubitak i unutrašnje snage. Eksperimentalno izvodenje performansa zasnovano na ovim idejama bilo je 1994. Šest godina kasnije ponovo razvijam svoj koncept. Bice obimnih revizija u koreografiji, sa inkorporisanom živom muzikom, posebno komponovanom za ovu namenu, i značajnom podrškom igrača. Ono što.ostaje je smisao za jednostavnost i neposrednost, kao i intenzitet emocija u komadu. Potom je moja strast za koreografijom bila podstaknuta. Posebna zahvalnost za izvođače i muzičare koji su dali novi život 'za pticu', kao i za glumce i ekipu na njihovom doprinosu.
