SEEDS OF LIFE #1, THE OPPOSITE HOUSE, BEIJING

March 22 - April 22, 2019


 
 

 

The big and dramatic atrium space of the Opposite House in Beijing invited Loher to create a universe that consisted of five Videoplanets, one for each element - Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.

The collaboration was based on meeting Beijing-based contemporary artists and Katja Loher was working with dancers and co-created the choreography and movements with them for the opening performance.

CHOREOGRAPHY

WITH CHINESE DANCERS

 

The choreographed dance in the bird’s eye view is inspired by Chinese martial art, Tai chi, Qi Gong and Kung Fu, and how they relate to the 5 elements.
