About Dance Troupe 60Tree
Dance troupe 60Tree shows the time and space
that human heart and nature meet purely and certainly, then decorating the worm
and peaceful human garden in everyone's heart.
As dance is not only our body but also love...as
dance is not only the shape of nature but also a flow...
For me, Dance is..
The technique- oriented body acted by fixed
motion often makes errors to bypass the concrete,
substance or reality variously experienced and
desires of incarnated body. By the dictatorship of reason, body becomes the
colony full of passive system and rigid technique. And the only visually
thinking cause the crisis of body. Feeling with all physical senses and
breathing then real time and space are the very ways overcoming
the limit of body. So the gap between the
subject and Vitality of the body, it's the base of dancing.
Life is unfolding of the dynamic circulation of
living. When the human recovers a state of nature, that is
what-is -so-of- itself, life gets vitality.
For me language system of dancing is composed of
the fundamental and the abstention of logicak concept.
which is the spirit of Zen. Dance is a way of
practicing the natural Zen or the nature like Zen.
