FISH SPIT FEAST (Previously known as “Feast of Fishbones”)
dance + animation + sound (2023-2026)
currently in development towards an evening length work
Camille Huang and Evelynn Yan in ‘Feast of Fishbones” in rehearsal
“Feast of Fishbones” is an interdisciplinary dance performance that explores an ancestral landscape of identities inside the body and its impulse for transformation through mixed media and the visceral body. The artists create a space where they have the freedom to rebirth into something they’ve imagined, into fictions of their identities. The work is a corporeal song of dreamed creatures where their bodies morph in and out of one another, becoming glimmering monsters, grotesque, delicious and dreamed in alternate timelines. The work is situated in, but not limited to, the bodies within an emerging diasporic culture, new fictions and old myths.
critique de Emmalie Ruest:
“Feast of fishbones commence avec un jeu habile de lumière, faisant apparaître et disparaître un duo fusionnel mêlant horreur et sensualité. Ce début éclatant ne sera pas dépassé pour le reste de la proposition au niveau de l'intensité, qui n’en demeure pas moins intrigante et mystérieuse. Créée et interprétée par Camille Huang, en collaboration de la danseuse Evelynn Yann, cette pièce allie danse, performance et art visuel, rien de moins.”
